I bought an m50 manifold for my 323i but it appears it is not a direct swap as the throttle bodies are completely different.
Could anyone tell me where I could get this kit? Done a small bit of research and didn't really come across much. Thanks.

A bit of manipulation and it will fit . Or else get the the kit Lewis haylor sells in he uk :) his shop is called BMW enthuaist

That's how mine looked like from eBay. No issues. No leaks.
328 exhaust, M50 manifold and K&N kit ( separate from engine bay) gave me 208hp from my 323i

Standard engine

Do you not lose torque with these mods?
on 328i ,yes - would loose , but on 323i it stays about same on same rev range but gains up a bit on higher revs ,as its very restricted from factoryQuote:

Jesus lad that is some gain from 170bhp. Very tunable with the manifold I take it :p
Is that 208 before or after remap or are the dyno just with and without manifold ?Quote:

No remap was done at all.
i have m50 on mine with bigger throttle body also and m3 exhaust manifolds and exhaust and was remapped so would be curious to find out whats it bhp as i never got it tested, if you need a remap or info on remap contact endtuning in the UK, the guy is a genius
I can recommend EndTuning.
I have a chip from him in my 318tds.
Really nice difference. Very happy with his job.
That is a huge power gain :O I have a full 328 exhaust there too just waiting on gaskets. Opened up the outlets with a diegrinder so should be interesting when it's fitted. I would be very happy with a result like that.
Is there anyone in Ireland that does that m50 fitting kit?

Dublin is too far a spin for me :p if I could get my hands on a kit I reckon I would be able to fit it.
I'll be ordering a kit myself in the next week or two.probably from the uk.mani should arrive by then.

Intake pipe? Don't think it needs changing too!Quote:
