there really are no said performance aprts for our cars exhausts really dont add much power but in my opinion stromung is the best and there are no other things for out motors really unless u wanna drop 3k on a super charger. | | | | | 06-10-2009, 02:23 AM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 |
Meh, in all honesty, the supercharger is a waste of time, unless youre looking for weight savings, but at the same time, you only gain 40lbs from an engine swap.
If im not mistaken, back when they were first produced, the supersprint was top of the line for performance over stock, not to mention the sound is great. Best bang for the buck with the 4 cyls is a chip, lightweight flywheel, 3.73 or 4.10 LSD, and pure maintenance. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

Have one made with another aftermarket muffler, 2.25" and try to keep it as straight as possible also without crushing it to go under the subframe. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

bavauto.com carries a few exhausts for the ti, but it would be cheaper to just buy a Magnaflow and have a custom exhaust made by a shop, which would also give you a broader choice of tips | | | | | 06-10-2009, 10:57 PM | #9 | | Junior Member Join Date: May 2009 Location: Dayton, OH Posts: 14 |
yeah i really dont want some rice pos muffler, thats why i was looking for a site that would carry higher brand names. i know when i was really into VW's, there were plenty of nice exhausts. what about a brake upgrade? anyone? | | | | | 06-10-2009, 11:44 PM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 |

rice pos muffler? Magnaflow is a pretty high quality brand and it's one of the few universal mufflers that don't sound too ricey on the 4-bangers | | | | | 06-11-2009, 03:35 AM | #13 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Columbia MD Posts: 215 |

A shorter geared diff will really let you use the M44 better- you will keep it higher in the power band, where the engine is putting out it's best performance. You will need to look after the engine (regular oil changes, etc) but you would have to do this with any engine performance mod. Especially with a limited slip diff- it will change the character of the ti, and really make it into the sportscar that it can/should be. __________________ *Except 318ti
