Hi
Since my exterior mods are pretty much done i want to supercharge my E46 323i 4 door. It has 105000 miles or 170000km. Does it matter how many miles tha car has if the company that sells the SC claims you have a 2 year warranty/unlimited milage warranty? I intend to keep the car so selling it is not an option.

I know some of you will maybe tell me to buy a m3 or a 330 instead, but since my exterior mods have cost me about 20K (European prices) and the car looks pretty good i am not fond in buying all that stuff again for a 330 :)

So please, if there are any of you out there that have a SC 323 Sedan/Coupe, could you please share your thoughts, like the most obvious: is there MUCH more power? when does it "kick in", at 3000 rpm, more. Anyting is apreciated :bow:
Thanks in advance

P.S. I did a search but i didn't quite find the answers i was looking for.

i had the infinitas sk+ on my '00 323i and loved it. it was more of a conservative kit IMO but definitely more power than other bolt ons. I think Epopa has a supercharged 323 and was pushing around 275 to the wheels if i remember correctly. Stock 323's are around 150-160whp i believe so you'd definitely feel the increase. power kicks in almost immediately but will peak at/close to redline. hope that helps
