Email Shrick...Something needs to happen.
But we can't really ask for cams when only a handful of people have bought headers, which are a HUGE power gainer on par with the manifold.

Sadly this.

I tried to contact them under the pretense that I was building bespoke track vehicle powered by a N52 and wanted a set of custom cams, no response.

Shrick is stubborn when it comes to small batch cams (I can understand their perspective). S54s seem to be the only thing they're interested in with our company

They make cams for pretty much every BMW engine from the last 30 years sans the N52...

Whoa! Color me wrong. I only hear about S54s running around with those cam sets...Guess that's probably just a reflection of that motor being the choice for most big power BMW owners.

Yup. One of the best engines they have ever made coupled with a large volume of production.

Good question - OFT is the only thing that currently allows for self tuning, but no Valve lift adjustments.

I would have no reason not to stay with Evolve. The offer remote dyno tuning, their cam results with other platforms have been excellent, and I've had an excellent experience thus far.

I once wanted an E46 M3. I love the S54 and the amount of modifications that can be done is even better. But the other day I drove an E46 325ci and I know it doesn't have what the M3 does, but my god is that car dated! I kept comparing it to my 1 in my head, forgetting it was the 3 before the E9x. Perhaps I'll change my mind if I ever get a ride in a well maintained E46 M3. But right now, I'm thinking the next car is going to be the E9x M3. I can't see myself going back in time farther just to get the E46 M3!

Back to the N52 discussion: I'd like to know what companies like Mitchum Motorsports do to their N52s. I heard they get ~300 out of em. Maybe one will pop up on eBay someday.

The E46 M3 has 6% parts sharing with the E46 3 series.

I should have said I was talking about the interior cosmetics as well. It just feels like you sit so high up in the older bimmers which I don't like at all. And how did you figure that out . . .

It's a published figure. Upcoming M3 is ~60% or so. Trim level vs bespoke here we come. Pass.

The feeling of height is often caused by the larger amount of visibility in the older cars.

Also ~6% or so. I think it was even lower than the E46, which makes sense as it doesn't even share roof panels for a good number of the cars. E30 is also the same way.

M cars historically have been vastly different vehicles than their standard 3er counterparts. Prior to the E9x, you gave up comfort for performance.

Kind of wish it stayed that way.

Seems too low of a number. Headlights, taillights, doors windows, trim, interior trim, dash, switchgear, etc. Major components (brakes, engine, transmission, wheels, bumpers) are different though.

E46 M3? Headlights are different, door exterior trim was different, interior panels are different (better leather), trim is different.

The list of shared pieces is more or less:
Roof panel
Door skins
Dash board
Dash frame
Trunk floor
Windows/windshield
Tail lights
Misc attachment nuts/bolts
Non drive related electronics

6% is by part quantity, and the s54 shares no parts with the m54 whereas the f8x m3/4 shares a lot of parts with the n54. Engines are a lot of parts.

I am currently making 248whp and 217wtq with my 2010 128i 6mt
Dynojet 220

Mods:
AA headers
Resonator delete
135i muffler
N54 intake manifold
N54 throttle body
OEM airbox with K&N drop in
Charcoal filter delete
Custom BPC dyno tune

Next will be MILV's, S65 injectors, full E85, N55 magnaflow system (will alow me to delete secondary cats, and have a full matching exhaust system that is lighter than OEM)

Hoping for 300whp or more

Since the dyno tune I have also added a Team Mfactory 215mm 3.46LSD

I don’t think you’ll make more than 270whp with all of that, but best of luck.

I know BOC made 26xwhp with race gas and a lot of timing, but on E85 - it was worth 5whp?
