I have a 325 and am interested in purchasing a supercharger for it. Problem being: I have a steptronic. Does anybody know if this will cause problems? :dunno:

I talked to the guys at AA about their supercharger system and they said that they have specifically designed kits to work with the Step tranny. NickACS is supercharged and has a step tranny as well. It's no problem you just have to be careful cause the step tranny can only handle 300 some odd HP...

Why do you have to drive it in step with AA tuning?

Yea, I have a 2001 330i step, and no problems :) Feels good and love it :thumbup:

Hmm, I drive all the time in "regular" Drive, but yes, when I really want to hit it and drive very "spiritedly" then putting it in Sport mode will help with faster shifting points and max delivery. Of course with my SSG paddles, its even more instanteous shift points :D

Good luck!
