Ah I see
Just to put you straight, IMO BMW has made at best mediocre Turbo engines. Back in the 2002 turbo or 80's F1 days different story maybe, but I don't rate any modern BMW Turbo engine, so can in no way be considered an n54 FAN.
s63tu is OK, but not that special for a performance engine, and N54/N55 with a turbo not capable of flowing enough in the upper rev range is a disaster. Who needs full boost by 1,200rpm?
The light at the end of the tunnel for the new M3/4, is if you rip the BMW turbo system off it, and turbo charge it properly it will be an amazing package.
...it all depends on whether the ECU can be cracked. BMW are making this more difficult.
