help needed, I'm not good mechanically.

Just a quick question, and all good answers are appreciated,

What advantages do you gain by putting an "I" head on a 325e? Also, besides the tac, does any thing else need to be changed, ie...ecu?

Thanks.

A few minutes searching would have turned up all you need to know.

The Cliff notes version is that just an "I" head will make the engine run worse. The complete conversion is to use an M20B25 head, intake, FPR, injectors, TB, AFM, engine harness, DME, and tachometer. And if the car has the 13 button DME an M20B25 coding plug.

This...

Here's a link, that leads to a link, which leads to another link, which finally leads you to a website detailing everything you could want to know about the swap.

The first two links are threads asking the same thing. Both within the recent past.

It's easier and possibly cheaper to just swap motors..

It's done as an upgrade over the 'i' motor, so just swapping won't serve the same purpose.

I think everyone so far for the info, I have not purchesed the car but am going to tomorrow. This is something that hope to do to the car in its future. I'll post a pic if I get it.
