I am certainly all for increased HP/Torque but what about the drive train etc? Can the stock parts hold those increases? How much HP/Torque increase is safe for a stock 135i? So many questions, so little time.

Yeah, I think our drive train would have no problems with 400 - 500 hp but close to 700 hp that is pushing it for sure. The N54 engines are an amazing engines.

But knowing you have that extra HP/Torque is a good feeling. |
