No word from Active AutoWerke yet but our sister company will have the one from VF Engineering hopefully by the end of summer. We got a chance to check it out at ///MFEST and were very impressed by the kit. We always are impressed with VF - which is why our last car was supercharged by them

Checkout the last Bimmer mag.
The Active Autowerke E92 M3 SC'er has made 660 bhp.
Their product is finish and ready.

I recommend you call them with your questions.

The G-Power SC'er also appears awesome. Member tightie should post results soon about his M3.

ESS was supposed to developed a SC'er for the M3 but have not seen any release.

The SC'ed M3 will be a killer.

Active is doing durability testing just like ESS and VF. They are pretty tight lipped regarding any additional info or regarding a release date.

Tightie posted a dyno but the car still needs further tuning so we are all waiting to see what it will do.

ESS has developed their kit and will be showing it at Bimmerfest.

Yes, the SC'd M3 will be killer, the wait is slowly killing me.

Dunno but I took some pic of my G-power kit getting installed I cannot wait.! This is the most High Quality SC kit I've ever seen put together in my life! I also have a newer bigger blower and a different Intake system made of carbon fiber that incorporates the OEM Hoodvent so its different then Tightie's set up I should be good to go at Bimmerfest!.

Here are a few pics from the BB.

Couple teaser shots for you guys!

The Teardown






The New Carbon Fiber Intake! It now incorporates the OEM hoodvent.

I recently visited the G-Power facility in Germany. Owner Christian Stoeber gave me a ride in the new Supercharged M3. All I can say is WOW! Power was spectacular and drivability was absolutely perfect. The installation looked like BMW designed it. These guys are perfectionists and it shows in every aspect of their workmanship.
Highly recommended!
