I would argue for a track-focused car the N54 manifold conversion is a better option than 3SIM anyway. It flows a little more up top which is nice especially if you bump the redline up to say 7300-7500RPM (which has been proven to be safe on the n52 over many thousands of miles driven). |

If I had an N52, I’d definitely get the N54 manifold and throttle bottle instead of 3 stage. With my N51, I already have 3 stage manifold. Switching to N54 is not a priority as I’m focusing on the suspension mods: TC Kline coilovers, M3 control arms front and rear, solid subframe bushings, rear sway.
For engine, I have charcoal filter delete, silicone intake tube (I actually notice a slight improvement on throttle response). I’m doing my own exhaust mods. I’m decatting my old N54 mid pipe and pair it with my N54 rear muffler. I heard the N55 muffler flows better and sounds better. I’ll finish the exhaust mod first and see how it sounds. No secondary cats should free up a few ponies. Down the road, AA headers and a tune should be good for a while. |
