Initial feel is no power loss/gain, but cant be sure.........I am noticing HEAVY gas useage which I am hoping is just for break in as my full tank of gas is below 3/4 already with only 83 miles!

The gas mileage will get MUCH better as you get more miles on the car. Seems that BMW builds these things super tight and they have to "work" harder at the beggining of their lives. Once you get to around 1200-1400 miles the car will get better mileage and you might notice more power (thats how my current 135 was and older 335) I would image that the same goes for the N55 but no one has had their car long enough for us to know. ENJOY THE DRIVE!!
