The headers look interesting but has anybody looked at putting the exhaust manifolds of a wrecked X5 n52 on? It is rated much higher hp and the sketches on realOEM look different - and have different part numbers. Another thing I noticed in a long ago realOEM comparison (I think there is a thread here) is the injectors are also different for the higher output n52s - something worth a check. I think the complete list of things to look at are the intake, exhaust, injectors and tune.
