RD SPORT | performance mod for NA
ran across this on the RDSport page.
they have something for the 325 and 330. camshafts, exhaust, tune (removes limiter / new limit @ 7400 RPM) 325i on RD - 282HP 330i on RD - 289HP no dynos, just a big price tag, but very interesting camshaft replacement. 4700$ - fack! https://racingdynamics.com/eStore/in...405290301.html

Or maybe it's just normal variations in dyno results as you would see from one car to another.

the 330 manifold give you a slap on gain of 7-8hp, so there is your only difference right there.
if you add the manifold to the 325 they will even out. expensive, a little, but if someone were to actually approach a vendor with intent of doing it they would get a lower rate for stepping up. I know I would honor that for the sake of knowing and real dyno results |

I'd buy that, but they aren't telling lift and lift by overlapping and do not show dyno's either I have no idea if it will work with my strocker at all or how it will work.

if the price 3000$, then maybe.
for 4700$, priced is very high. must include RD Sport warranty. for the 325, this is awesome. RD Sport has been around, we can assume the numbers are good. i wanna see how much it's put'n to the wheel, to compare other performance mod combos. i like the idea of camshafts and the raised limiter. if anything the camshafts...

Very cool. I wonder if they have anything for the N51, or if it all works the same

Tried to contact RDSport everywhere I could(mails,skype,their forum, even called to Italia couple of times) regarding dyno's or atleast some camshaft characteristics and they couldn't provide any of those. I doubt that those camshafts exist

Just a bit from their software upgrades:
Quote:
Also they have N52 software for each of the models, but their e9x N52 software is $100 more than the X3/X5 3.0si software and I don't understand why. It appears I have 2 local vendors (only 1 of them comes out and says on their website that they offer all RD Sport products including Software Flashes), so I might venture over there to chat with them this week. If only I owned a car that demanded more of an aftermarket, I might be able to compare software gains from multiple companies, but alas, that isn't the case. If I decide I'm willing to spend $695 to get their "custom-tailored" software, I'd definitely get before and after dynos. I'm probably leaning this way; then I could at least post a chart to see how far my 3.0si motor goes.. |
