News for the 323i owners, ARMA has sucessfully installed in on the 323i and it produces numbers of 291BHP and 345TQ.

Quite awesome if you ask me! I hope the prices arn't rediculous.

Quote:

This system is exclusively added the ARMA-developed STAGE-2 mechanical supercharging system. The horsepower testing shows that the N52 323 2.5 engine’s torque can reach to the level at 313PHP 370 NM, and the 325 2.5 can drive to the torque at 350HP 410NM, moreover, the 330s are even comparable to the torque of V8M3 at 425HP 510NM. The Front Mount Air-to-Air Intercooler, exclusive computer and ARMA Exhaust are the indispensables to push the 3-series to the ultimate. To equip the full kit of ARMA Mechanical Supercharging System is the best buy for the 3-series owners.

The 323i in Canada is the same as the 325i 2.5L in Asia so the 323i Canadian will produce the same output as the 325 2.5L.

If you add up the cost it will most likely be better to get 335i. Having said that it is good news for those that are stuck with N52 and power hungry

Well having said that, it is true. I am going to switch cars soon.
However it is great for those in other countries where the price differences between models are quite high, sorta like in Asia.

I wonder what the full kit runs price wise?

Another member contacted Ben @ ARMA and the price is around $7000 for stage three, which includes practically everything including an varible valve exhaust system.
For the 330 it will be 425BHP/510NM

Yeah, not worth it here. For the same price you are better off with a 335i that has a factory warranty.

Not sure really, alot of great choices these days.
Or maybe an 2007 Cayman S from the States for mid $30K.
Went to the dealership and took a look at one, but the Canadian price is so un-reasonable. A brand new 911 turbo in the States is 40% CHEAPER!!!
