I'm new here but thought would post my other motor.
I originally had a b5 S4 with 352bbp/422lbft, that was undergoing a 500bhp+ build with all supporting chassis mods. Anyway after spending 10k ontop of what had already been spent, and custom manifolds not fitting.....I got the arse and decided to get rid, and replaced with an E46 330D M sport Touring.
Bye to the S4, hello to the 330d.
So I collected her, took her straight to a specialist to check over and see what she needs to get perfect on the same day, booked in for 2k worth of suspension, mounts etc, genuine oem. Also put it on dyno to see if she's healthy........and turns out it's already mapped and has decatted downpipe. Standard roughly 200bhp/300lbft, mine has 285bhp/450lbft
I've since put my private plate on, serviced, lowered, removed the egr & enjoy never seeing less than 30mpg. But she's now come off the road for the winter for freshen up, bit tappy up top which I think is a diesel knock. So injectors are coming out to be serviced, turbo is being rebuilt, replace clutch for the Sachs racing I have indoors and prob a new dmf too. Then she will carry on as my daily, the gti6 will come off the road completely for track only and get trailered by the derv Beemer
Few pics & sneaky vid of the S4 being mapped
