Again.. BMW just didn't add boost, they supported their decision with additional engineering.
First part is subjective and depends on the buyer/owner...you are assuming that you know what is in either party's head...and unless you a psychic...you get the point.

The additional engineering you are talking about so far consists of what? Better intake/exhaust...and what else? Like I said before the bulk of that torque is coming from increased boost...there is just no other way it is possible with the same N54 engine (note that is NOT N54 sourced..it IS a N54).
