Default New Member - Hi Everybody!

Hello everyone.

Just thought I'd quickly introduce myself. My name is Matt and I own a E36 318is Coupe. I've joined up here as I'm sure lots of you guys have plenty of knowledge and I can learn some things (and contribute where I can) and I'm also after as much information on the Downing Atlanta Supercharger as I can get (also looking to buy one soon).

Here's a picture of my 318is in case anybody is interested.

Nice! JohnBoy and I can probably offer some DASC advise however I am selling my blown ti in the next couple of weeks. He was running and I am running ~15 psi with meth injection putting down around 270 hp.

I don't suppose you fancy shipping the DASC to the UK (worth a shot!)?

At what stage does meth injection become needed? How difficult is the installation?

Selling the whole car, sorry . When you get above 12 psi meth helps a lot. It's pretty easy, just some basic wiring, tapping, etc.

Downing Atlanta has a couple of DASC units left I believe at $3800. Pulleys can be sourced from http://www.pulleyboys.com/store/prod...&cat=40&page=1

3.4 = 12 psi, 3.2= 14.5 psi. When you run over 10 psi though, you need different fuel injectors and thus tune. Technique tuning (www.techniquetuning.com) does a great job with their Stage 3 tune which is what I have.

Just the kind of post I was after (not much information in the UK atm). $3800 works out at £2328.64 before shipping. Less than I expected tbh.

What injectors are needed over 10psi?
Is there a specific meth setup required?
