Hi,

New to the forum and I searched for a while for this specific question, so sorry if its been asked before:

Basically I've heard the throttle body on the 325i only opens to 70% (I have a UK car with N53).

I was thinking of doing the 3 stage intake swap then getting a tune for it- and have also heard a lot of people talking about the Dinan throttle body.

So ultimately the question, when I get the car tuned, could they make the stock throttle body fully open, ie is it controlled by the ECU or is the reason that so many people change to the Dinan body that so that it can be used to it's full potential.

Any help would be great,
Cheers :

I'd go with the riot racing throttle body
Its good for a few ponies
there is a thread discussing it in the first xouple pages of this forum
not to mention, it is significantly cheaper in price
