So you really cant mess with a v8 absolutely pumbled a 335 convert today-albeit he is a bit heavy with that, still not chance. Off the line and at the end consistently pulled and to boot I am in a much bigger sedan. Gotta love the 5 series v8

indeed.

Modded 335i (with JB chip or similar) > Modded 545i (with RPI scoops and Air filter) > Stock 545i > Stock 335i

+1.

But it is also true that the power gain from Dinan or JB3 mods on the 335's and 535's engine is mind blowing.
