Hi Barry.

Theres not much you can do i found to a 318 without spending a load of cash..

I had a 318is as my first car at 17 so i did as much as i could on a budget.

Simple things like:

A good full service...

Induction Kit

A big bore throttle body

I had a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold with a Decat and Sebring exhaust ( made such a difference )

And a remap. All in all i probably gained an extra 30-40hp. But it did sound atleast like an M3 - in my opinion, better!

But make sure u do the remap last!

On the more expensive side - i ended up uprating both cams but that was only because i did it myself ( lost it in the snow a month later )

And one thing i wanted to do was a Downing Atlanta Supercharger. But these are worth more than the car.. For the same money you could just buy a 328 - which i did =p
