I just got a couple early copies (here in the US at least!) of the March '04 issue of Performance BMW magazine and there is a nice couple page writeup/review on AA's 330ia/325i and upcoming info on the E46 M3 superchargers :thumbup:

Definitely something to consider reading if you've been wanting more info/proven results of the Active Autowerke E46 superchargers!

Nick, you cheeky bastard... I just realized from their website..

That your car is in what appears to be the FEB Issue!

"Supercharger, 380mm discs, 19s and style to make you weep with envy, Nick Schneider's 330i is taking charge of America's Deep South. Forget about the King of New York make way for the Southern Boss."

Unfortunately in the US, we got the magazine in bookstores about a month late (ie. Feb '04 will be on sale last week of Feb/1st week of March).
But all the Borders/Barnes&Nobles carry the magazine, as well as other large chain bookstores I'm sure.

If you do subscribe, then you get them "on time" :) hehe..

Haha, yea where have you been? :P Just kidding! There's a thread over in the Showroom section about myself and Krishna ('RacingDynamics2') with the gullwing doors saying they saw us in the Feb '04 issue.
At the local BMW meet 2 weekends ago, someone who subscribed had a copy and I got to see it :) My issues from PBMW are on their way this week..

Thanks! Much more to come!!

That's awesome. I try to check all forums here, but I guess some good stuff always slips by un-noticed.. :eeps:..

That's awesome that you and Krishna both got in the mag. I got my exhaust from him :D he's a cool dude.

I will definately be picking up this copy a.s.a.p. And who knows... if it's got good gouge in FI in there, I may be subscribing, too.

Anyhow.. your ride is :str8pimpi as usual....

Thank you Durgesh, I really appreciate it :) Yea, I finally got my "advanced" copies from PBMW last week. Only disappointment was no pics of the engine bay with the AA s/c'er and painted engine pieces were used? But still it's a great honor to be in their publication. :)
