Why not just get the 400bhp remap from Emaps in Walsall and sort the exhaust out later? All you're missing is the extra noise.
Interesting comment from Cotswold BMW - "When the full potential of the M Performance Power and Sound Kit is being harnessed, the series brake system can be subjected to higher thermal stresses. During exceptionally sporty driving, we therefore recommend the installation of a larger M Performance brake system that is designed to cope with greater thermal stresses."
They sell the kit for £1700.

I don't have the parts tbh even if I get them any idea what the labor costs will be?
I live in Rugby, Warwickshire not sure if there is anyone around my area to get this done?
Offer I had from Cotswold was £1595 supply and fit. I live in Rugby, Warwickshire not sure if there is anyone around my area to get this done?
I've seen the kit for £1200 on eBay.
As a benchmark I've seen £200 quoted for fitting, on threads here.

Also frustrating there is nothing similar for the g20/21 m340i, but perhaps that risks treading on the M3's toes too much.
The G80 M3 is like 500bhp though isn't it? A cheeky nudge on the m340i to low 400s wouldn't encroach too much on their grail car. Maybe in the near future they'll get an MPPSK type upgrade working with the PPF.... Or maybe they can't be arsed. Who knows.david-j8694 said:

Yes who knows, it should'nt tread on the toes because they are very different cars aimed at different buyers, but a 420bhp xdrive m340i might embarass a rear drive 500bhp M3 on paper stats, which can't happen. But i'd be happy to have a bit more warranty approved noise and power if they want to offer it.Gassing Station | BMW General | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
