Golf V GTI vs BMW E36 320
Sultinys asked:
Golf V GTI Pirelli Edition (230 BHP) vs BMW E36 320 (M50B28 – I named so myself) – 246 BHP. BMW wheels spinning badly on the 1st and 2nd gears at the beginning of the 1st test. Second try is more successful. Cars are equal from the rolling start. more info on www.bmw-passion.com Don’t post stupid comments like this is impossible to have such amount of power. Car has been dynoied and now it has even more BHP – 261 HP at the crankshaft.

Any suggestions on after market ECU chip for BMW 335i? Which is better, Dinan vs Vishnu?
If I really have to choose, Dinan has my vote.
But that being said, I would keep the 335i as stock. This is coming from someone who has modified and still racing BMWs (legally sanctioned). I am not entirely keen on modifying the new BMWs. Reason is they aren’t built like they used to. I bet you already knew that the N54 uses a block from the M54 (2001 through 2005 E46). The BMW engineers have optimized the parameters for 335i to drive on the streets/highway for an optimal reliability time frame. Anytime you modify the ECU, you are reducing the reliability time frame. And no, BMW NA does not even warrant Dinan’s work. The only "tuner" or re-manufacturer as they would like to be addressed that BMW recognized is Alpina.
I can see the joy and the rush of modifying the ECU and getting that extra something instant. I have been there and I have learned a few things. Now, do keep in mind, you’re running not one but two turbochargers. The turbochargers work in sync with the engine. If they are overstressed (running on modified boost), something else is going to give up somewhere. If that something doesn’t give up during your ownership, well consider yourself lucky. If it does, then it’s an expensive lesson learned.
I have driven/tracked the 335i. IMO, it runs on plenty of hp/torque for the car. If you find the car still rather lacking, sign up with your local BMW chapter and enroll in an auto cross or high performance driving event. Trust me, you will never see the car the same way again.
