That is exactly what I'm saying ! Is there any recommendations about a specific air filter ? spark plugs ? Chip tuning ? Body throttle ?
By the way, having all these mods done will on paper develop around 250 hp, which almost meets the N52 254 , should i expect same performance ?

as for upgrades there's not much you can really do to add 30-40hp. RPI scoop, K&N or BMC filter, high flow cats, some aftermarket exhaust, bms powerbox? Maybe will give you 15-20hp? orrr you can always supercharge
