I feel sorry for the 55ers
If they only knew they could get a stock 54 throw on a tune and some suspension upgrades and have a budget M car : NOW let the hate begin |

Only real problem with the N55 (apart from missing a turbo) is that it's MAF sensored. When it comes to tuning the load values that the ECU sees from the MAF sensor cannot be easily manipulated hence the reason COBB still can't work out the correct algorithm for a flash and I don't think they will for a while yet.

M3 N55
I saw somewhere that the new M3 was N55 TTT powered, so don't knock the N55 yet as there maybe a day soon when us N54 guys will be looking at the back of a N55 powered car
But i to hope that the 1M is not the last N54 powered car off the production line if that is the case there will be no more from now on, that's it end of an era or a big mistake Maybe the US has killed it due to the legal action with the engine, maybe the pen pushers and been counters at BMW have killed the engine forever.

I agree with.... Ian.... and Alpine (except for the jealous thing? Jealous of what exactly?)
Most people don't know what the difference is or will ever use the potential. Sure for the modifiers out there, N54 wins, but the majority of the market don't modify their cars. |

On the other hand I think people take offense a little to easily it was a 'take the piss' kind of photo. I'm sure if I look hard enough there would be something where the n54 would Be bagged, and if that were posted I would laugh just as hard. |
