Reviews that have the dyno put the gain at 25-30 HP. The torque is the bigger story, 35 lb ft! Either way, it keeps the refinement that you expect from a BMW I6 and is engineered to be reliable in all conditions you might encounter in the US.

I want that over a product made in a garage. I also would like my dealer to fix problems when they arise instead of asking fellow 18-24 year olds on a forum and banging my head to the wall.

If you have a procede, it is 100% not aimed at you, honestly.
