I don't want to mod my 2013 BMW X3 M Sport
Every post seems to be people unhappy about something cosmetic or option wise with their X3 and asking how to modify it.
I just wanted to say that I like everything about my X3 M Sport exactly how it rolled off the assembly line. The only thing I changed was I added a Torklift hidden hitch to tow my jet ski. |

Just got the X3 with N55 for my wife. She doesn't want anything done to it. Cosmetically I don't either. But I'm thinking about slipping an MHD tune in when she isn't looking and sneaking up to the local drag strip. The problem is she's always looking out the door window to the garage wondering what I'm doing around her car.

Riick, you know what - you donīt have to. Most people - apart from those with a serious or annoying problem -are writing to get attention. Adding some 20-50 bhp, makes them feel important and have a mutual problem to discuss, with others with same tune. And best of all - they can go to a parking lot and "test" their cars against others, before having a manly discussion over a beer.
Luckily, its all harmless. |

The X3 28i and 35i both run 14 second 1/4mi, they're within half a second of each other it's impossible to tell the two apart if you were not told which model you were driving. It's all in your head.
A $180 Burger Quick Tune puts the 28i in the 13's saving thousands of dollars on the premium of buying a 35i with better reliability, better fuel mpg, and less maintenance cost. In the case of a 28i vs 35i, bigger isn't better. Last edited by Riick; 05-10-2018 at 12:19 PM.. |

In a 1/4 mile half a second is a pretty big deal. And arguably you could say that again you could put that burger tune or MHD or whatever onto the 35i and likely get even more out of it than the 28i could.

Interesting. Where did you get your figures? A real comparison should be done on the same day at the same track with both vehicles lined up next to each other. Keeps bench racing or cherry picked figures from distorting actual performance figures.
