325e performance! (archive)
[ Follow Ups ] [ 3-series (E30) Message Board ] [ Msg. Board FAQ ]
Posted by Tom on February 25, 2000 at 13:37:25:

Firstly thanks to all who have answered my (probably) naïve questions about the 325e. Unfortunately the eta is fairly rare here in Europe and information is hard to come by. I will therefore ask some more questions! :

1) What is the official 0-60mph time for an unmodified manual `87 325e?
2) What is the official top speed?
3) What difference will a Dinan chip make to the above figures?
4) Is it true to say that such a chip upgrade pushes the engine harder in order to gain higher output, but in doing so increases the rate of engine wear?
5) And finally (phew!!) exactly what does a chip change involve (i.e. can an amateur like me change the chip at home)?

Thanks once again,

Tom.
