Any other mod that can install in 320!, to which I think it is 4 bangers?
I will maintain first 2 years warranty, thereafter its no point going to dealer as the price is sky-high

The purpose of the website is trying to persuade you to make a purchase.
To me, if goodies (power yet durability) come in so easily, what makes BMW R&D department worth it's existance?
Well, if anyone can go TMS with their 5 series at 5500-6500rpm all the time, this mod is for you, it's because you can abuse the car further.

the engine will be OK but the rest well can not say.
I think most of the other parts will brack before the engine eg rubber mounts and wishbones.....
I know that the gear box will have a very hard work and will die much sooner but if you plain to own the car for year or 2 then it will be OK

+2 raising the rev limit w/o further balancing the engine sounds v dodgy to me.
