I want to go back to stock on my 318is m42 engine, and would like to trade throttle bodies plus 200. The throttle body is about 2 years old. This would probably need to be within the DC area, unless you are able to ship your throttle body to me so I can do the swap, and then ship the Dinan back to you as I can't have down time on my car.

In my conversations with the BMW tech people the BBTB is about the best thing you can do to the M42 intake wise due to the fact that we have that stupid flapper AFM. | | | | | 06-29-2006, 05:40 PM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Berlin, Germany Posts: 258 |
Can you elaborate? __________________ | | | | | 06-29-2006, 05:44 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Asheville NC Posts: 669 |

Andy pretty much got the nail on the head. Swapping from AFM to a MAF or a MAP is way more expensive than a BBTB though. | | | | | 06-29-2006, 07:32 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Southern California Posts: 456 |
I have been afraid to ask this for the fact that i just sold my totalled 95 m3 completely. I then installed an intake on the m42 and saw that the AFM(flapper) has the same harness and plugs as the obd1 m3. Would the 3.5 inch m3 sensor have worked on the m42? __________________ SPEED IS NOT AN EQUATION CONSISTING OF DISTANCE DIVIDED BY TIME.
