Agreed but Jordan specified performance difference of ZHP vs non-ZHP in his post, not what would come from swap. I guess acceleration would be different as well.

IMHO, if you wish to go the route of short diff the 3.62 LSD from the M3 is the best option

Faster acceleration. Lower top speed. Lower fuel economy.

The ZHP Auto comes w/ the 3.64 stock. It's basically what makes the the ZHP faster than a normal auto 330.

Thanks for the information fellas. I ask this question because I have an Auto 330i zhp and compared to my brothers Auto 330i, it feels as though acceleration and pickup is quicker in his car. Maybe I am suffering from some hesitation or power dip idk.

Maybe you have a vacuum leak?

There's definitely something happening. My dad has a "normal" 330. After he drove my car he looked at me and said "damn you!" because it was so much faster than his 330.

Gah, someone hit me while I was parked.
Good thing I have fantastic insurance.
Before that happened I got a new AUC sensor (old one went bad), and a new OAT sensor (fell off when the soft wheel well panel was damaged).

I too like the Blacklines Seth... Nicely done. I just wish they had Blacklines for the LCI... I have to have an LCI car, a better look to me...

eh, i kinda still like the pre LCI better. Throw an Mtech kit on it and you can't even tell aside from the tails.

ok, I'll play. Blacklines??
