Dabsy,
You recently responded to someone on using a diode to remap the MAF- I'd like to return the expensive one I bought for a little of your guidance?
Whats the difference is a straight thru aftermarket exhaust versus fabbing a M3 exhaust into the 318is?
Either method would give her some guts matey... Remember to get the air-intake sorted too - Forced Air Induction cone system would kick her into action and work well with the fatter pipes !!

Again, many aftermarket induction kits can still utilise the MAF without needing a diode. Using a diode only fools the ECU, and that the MAF (although unplugged) thinks the engine is still cold, thus overfuelling constantly.
(sorry for the delay!)
