As we know from our Project 135i, having 300hp and 300 lb/ft can be intoxicating. However, it soon wasn't enough and after a month or two Anderson decided to extract more. He started with add-ons that would help with the 335i's breathing, including a Supersprint exhaust mated to Eisenmann's twin rear mufflers with quad tailpipes that snuggle up to the carbon rear apron.
With his carbon fascination unsatisfied, an order was placed for the Gruppe M air intake and some aFe Dynamic Air Scoops to maximize airflow.
Finally, a Split Second Turbo Tuner was ordered from JLevi. The piggy-back ECU is claimed to add about 60hp and has given this 335i the ability to run 12.4sec quarter mile times. For now, Anderson is hoping this will be enough performance, because anything else is going to start getting really expensive!

Snakeskin jeans with a DIY hem. Anderson, what were you thinking? We're liking the Monopoly tee-shirt though. Think it may have saved the ensemble
Inside the car, Anderson could afford to be more conservative, since he'd selected red leather upholstery from the factory. All he added was Hamann pedals and e-brake, an M5 shift knob, along with a BMW nav unit and iPod integrator.
Back in the Phillipines, this E93 is something of a celebrity. It's been featured on local TV shows, Auto Extreme and Hotwire. It's also bagged eight trophies from seven major car shows - usually taking Best Euro and Best BMW. The car has also been featured in two local magazines, so we thought it was time to get in on the act and not be left behind!
