Default KO Super charger

http://www.koperformance.com/BMW/tur..._boost_kit.htm


I am looking to upgrade my 318ti and try to give the HP. I want to know if a supercharger is a realistic upgrade for a 318ti Is there alot of labour involved in installing one if i get a mechanic to do it for me.

Please tell what upgrades u might suggest that would not involve a major work to my car. such as exhaust air intakes or chips.

thanks

Downing Atlanta manufactures a supercharger system for the 318s. Use the search function here and/or Google for "downing atlanta" and "DASC".

KO actually sells the DASC, but you have to email them for the price. http://koperformance.com/BMW/turbo_s...gers/index.htm

All the way at the bottom

Do you know anyone u have purchased a the DASC. and do they know the work involved in putting it in the car. My hunch is that it is going to be pricey to install.

Installation takes 6 - 10 hours, it's not really difficult, just time consuming. I offer free afterhours install support to folks that buy them from me.
