Hi. I suggest you use google to search for "BP's BMW E30 318is" site. He covers most of the options. There are some options, but the engine well set up as standard.

simple think work on these cars ie exhaust airfilter/air box

i had mine tuned to 162 bhp and 149ft/lb torque but that was due to a re-map and it was quick as a 2.5 up to about a 80mph

light weight flywheel works wonders on these engines as well, a grand spent on this engine will make it out perform a 2.5 sport

Very good site, gives lots of info on upgrades and so on...

Also try www.e30tech.com

Another very good site, that has specific sections for specific engines...

I find BP's site good too, but know where near as much info as the others

Thanks
