Hi chaps, I have just bought a SG csl.

I have had 3 normal m3's and one supercharged version which had all the trick bits, ap's, intrax etc..

However have always wanted one after hearing one local to me.

I had a quick question, and hopefully someone can answer it.

To keep it's warranty, does the car have to be serviced by BMW or can a specialist like Simpson Motorsport do it?

Pictures up soon

Needs to be serviced at BMW I'm afraid mate.

Nice one mate,you won't regret it.As Nathan says it must be serviced by Bmw once the warranty is in place.

And it needs a previous faultless BMW dealer service history.

Thanks everyone, just picked it up.

Don't know how much more a remap and supersprint adds to bhp, but oh my god!!

What a noise and what a car, very impressed.

Just booked in for insp 2 and detail.

Big thanks to fez on here.

hello mate

whats the supercharger like on an m3?

was thinking of supercharging my csl, but dont know if i want to lose that induction roar

[w17led]

Hi, the supercharged was good but unless you are gonna go for 550bhp kit or above don't bother. Anything else is only fractionally faster before 100 bhp.

Mine was the ess vt460 kit from simpson motorsport.

I would have the roar any day of the week, I love it!

[toofastforyou]

hmmm interesting

i was thinking i would like just a little bit more power especially on straights

[w17led]

Hi, I personally wouldn't bother with the extra 7k plus cost.

Also the car won't be original anymore and doubt you will get back the extra cost.

The csl is plenty fast to be honest..
