am after doing a couple of mods 2 my sport its currently standard bar a full scorpion stainless,
would a new air flow sensor from euro's make it more responsive? is the viper 2 induction kit any good 4 this car, as my last one had a k&n and when the engine got hot it wasent as responsive (maybe the e30 bay isn't so ventalated) or will a panel filter do the job? allso are boge or bogg standard billstiens any good wit ventuer springs?
any hep appriciated!
nice one daz

From what people have said on here the best basic mods are a big bore throttle body, zone chip and replacement panel filter for the standard air box. You already have the exhaust.
The standard air box seems to be best unless you enclose a cone filter to prevent it sucking in hot air. The BMC carbon airbox is good - check the group buy section.

Wil has a carbon jobbie on his 24v lump, he says it just makes noise.
Sport Boge shocks are very good, but bilstein sports fitted on early ones are even better. I would bin the nasty ventura springs and go for something like Apex if you're on a budget. H&R, Boge sport springs from GSF
I wouldn't with bother the viper induction twice the price of a BBTB and half the gains

i was going for this kit, but strong advice on here told me to go billy sport dampers with -35mm H&R springs. Ian332i runs this with his 3.2 E36 M3 lump in so if it's good enough for that.......................

Willow i haven't yet but when i get the money which at the moment is about 5years away i'll let u know! H&R springs i think are about 130-160 nicka. The dampers are dear Ԛ£70 for rears each and 100 and something for the fronts, i think

Cheers Simon, there's so much talk lately on the zone about this setup and that setup
it's impossible to decide what to go for
