RC,
N55 engine only have one turbo instead of the N54 with twins.
Our turbo working range starts from 1000rpm so on, therefore its always spinning which created heat. imagine such a small turbo working on a large car (F10)
Since we can't mod it like the Japs with intercooler + tubing/Pipes. (also engine re-mapping in the case)
There's no point in HARD MODDING the engine just to cool it or get more power out of it.
Just buy another car.

306ps its just paper data. i think 306ps is from the best situation BMW tested on.
