BMW 335i with DINAN remapped ECU

BMW's high performance 335i coupe (E92) gets tweaked by tuner Dinan, by way of ECU reflashing upgrade. Throttle response is further sharpened (as if the stock standard one isn�t responsive enough!) with horsepower hiked to a loftier 384hp (from standard 306hp) at 5700 rpm while torque is a wrench-bending 570Nm at 4300rpm! For just the ECU remap job, you need to fork out USD$1,999 � but that�s the main mod in order to extract the IL6 twin turbo�s higher potential. However, with the turbocharged 6-pot running much hotter, an additional oil cooler is warranted, which will further add cost to the upgrade.

For Wheels� associate Dan who had sampled a PROcede modded BMW 335i with about 350hp (the owner requested anonymity) said it was bloody wicked and deceptively rapid. While the PROcede conversion nulls and void BMW�s original warranty, the Dinan guys (at least over in the U.S.) claim to be able to offer a warranty that parallels the original manufacturer�s.

Watch out BMW (E92) M3!

Proton BLM: Spy pictures leaked

Thanks to readers Dennis and BMW.Toyota, we have some internet images depicting Proton's upcoming Iswara replacement model dubbed BLM (Base-Line Model). Slated to make the over-two-decades old Saga (ah! finally) obsolete, the BLM is a 3-box saloon based on the Savvy platform.

Chips Yap of MTM have indicated that this new Proton model will be launched in 6 weeks time. Prices are guess-timated to be between RM30k to RM42k and it looks like Perodua will have something to worry about. Will Perodua Viva's feather get ruffled further?

Brookland Motors now official Citroen distributor in Malaysia

Brookland Motors Sdn Bhd is now the sole importer and distributor of Citroen automobiles in Malaysia. Having invested more than RM7 million setting up 3S (Sales, Service n Spares) centres in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Baru and Kota Kinabalu, existing owners of Citreon cars have every reason to rejoice in confidence. In addition, more 3S centres will be up and running in Petaling Jaya, Ipoh and Kuantan soon.

To kick start things, the new Citroen Grand Picasso MPV (pictured below) is slated for launch sometime next year. However, it remains to be seen whether the sleek all-new C5 will make it to Malaysian shores as well.
