Active Autowerke Turbo Kit – Stage 2

Unbridled power is what our turbo kits have always been about – and this one’s more of the same. A lot more. Like, say, double the stock 240 BHP your ’96 – ‘99 M3 was born with. Yet for all their brute strength, your 480 Active Autowerke horses are well mannered and remarkably stealthy. Our software expertise allows for precise boost control and minimal compressor surge so BMW’s inbred civility and refinement are never sacrificed at the altar of speed. Externally, a repositioned air intake and front-mounted intercooler are the only tells of the übercar that now lurks within.

“With 480bhp and 460 lb-ft of torque, it was like being hit with a sledgehammer, slamming my internal organs against my spine… Even a moderately tuned Active Autowerke Stage 1 kit made me wonder if those factory binders were big enough. Stage 2 made me certain they weren’t.”
(European Car, May 1997)

Active Autowerke Turbo Kit – Stage 1

It’s no wonder this kit has been acclaimed by the tuning press since we first engineered it. Reasonably priced and barely detectable to the eye once installed, the Generation3 Active Autowerke turbo system sets loose a serious performance revolution under the hood of your E36 M3. You’ll feel the true meaning of power with 360BHP at your command, while still maintaining the factory looks and civility of a daily driven car. For Gen 3, we’ve also paid special attention to refining boost control and reducing compressor surge. Nice beastie. Sit. Stay. No biting.
