best performance software/chip

[bmw4life13]

what is the best performance chip/software availabe for an e36. i've seen several brands and i'm not sure which one to get. my friend has a conforti chip that he used on his 98 m3. can i just use his? what's a good place to get one for a decent price?

where did you get your chip?

 

[MrElussive]

Conforti is probably the most reputable.

how do the conforti/shark system compare to the dinan systems? which one is better? they both appear tailored to bmw's. can anyone tell me which one to get? btw...will i notice a significant improvement in acceleration or do i need an intake sytem as well?

READ THIS OR HERE
i was able to "FEEL" a difference..the shark injectoe has a conforti cai that was designed to go together..i have them both and love it

thanks vance for those links. it sounds like the jc chip would be more practical for me since i do street driving and i won't be on the track. too bad the second link was only in regard to the 7 series.

has anyone changed their intake as well? do you think that's a worthwhile mod?

Whats performance software? I know what it is for a computer but what is it for your car...And how do you install software on your car.. [???1]

You can program you car...

You can change when the trans shifts and all kinds of cool stuff.

i believe it resets the onboard computer allowing your engine to have higher rev limits and improve its performance. although why wouldn't bmw just do this to start with? [???1]

LOL there was once someting called gas millage

guessgirl to install the program by plugging it in to the 12 pin (i think)diagnostic port and hit the install button

Or by actually removing the EEPROM andreplacing it with a pre-programmed performance chip.
