tehBMWn00p 2 Report post Posted January 22, 2004 Hey fellas... I jst bought ma first car (bmw 320i 85 i think..) on boxing day last year. Im not exactly rich considering im stil @ schoo' (16) but i'd like 2 slowly upgrade the batmobile so dat i can b jst as coo' as j00 guys! I would really like 2 know what mods i should invest first due to my limited income & upgrade as i can afford. $ I think i wanna get a new air filter considering it's a cheap improvment but i dont know which one exactly... Maybe u guys could giv some insite. Cheers, cliff ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted January 26, 2004 an air filter won't do anything for you. Spend some money on fixing things. Bushes etc.. it will make a noticeable difference. The air filter isn't the restriction on the intake system anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
