"i wanna go faster!"

This weekend, i drove through the mountains with a buddy of mine who has a chipped stage 4 S4. And wow.. after driving for a few hours with him i can honestly say... i wanna go faster. I have a 330i and i honestly thought the speed was enough for me.. but ever since being smoked by his audi, i want to get some more speed. I understand it's nearly impossbile to reach teh power number of his S4, but what are otehr options, asside from trading in for the 335 to give me a little more push. I read about the chip for the 330i, but 600 for 10 hp's, i'd rather wait for a more effective chip. Is there any otehr chips that have worked well for the 330i's? I love my car, but wow.. after this weekend, mad props for S4's and i can only wish my car was faster.

One word of advise: if you really want to go fast, don't bother modding your 330, just trade it for a 335. On the long run it will be (much) cheaper.

you don't really want to go faster, you just want to be faster than your friend

it hurts to be beaten by your friends' cars.....

so at the end, it's just a battle of who has more $$$....save up for the ferrari....

Supercharge + tune + new differential should make a huge difference...if you dont drop big bucks then u cant really do without the 600 for 10 hp thing. Another cheap fix u can do is just not rid ein fast cars anymore...haha..whenever i sit in my dads cayenne turbo s or my friends m3, i get that same feeling...i want more sound, torque, and bigger tires. hehe but too much money for me to justify...
