OT: n54 vs n55

Harlequin · 08-29-2012, 07:18 AM

I didn't know the N55 existed when I bought my car... I thought I'd bought an N54. The people at BMW even kept referring to it as a twin turbo...

Having said that, I love my DCT.

...but I really want a GODDAMN COBB TUNE!!!!!

Man, stick shift is for dinosaurs and technophobes

I am neither, yet love MT. 17/18 cars have been MT... what category do I fall into?

Pav below had DCT and he is both a dinosaur and technophobe

Tell you what pete the Nissan and Toyota look very very similar. I was talking to a chap at Wakefield on Monday about his car, I was giving you a plug to work on his car and after half an hour he says "gtr?? Nah mate this is a soarer". I coulda sworn it was gracer under the bonnet

Seriously (there ya go kenny a serious post just for you

) I have no issue with the 55 except for the twin power bit (Fark'n marketing peeps). I think the new head tech is pretty cool and await the new m3 setup.
