Did you find 306hp is not enough for you? I have difficulty to master the 272hp.
306ps its just paper data. i think 306ps is from the best situation BMW tested on.

If they done the test right here in HK Wan Chai to Causeway Bay now. i dont think it can perform that well or 300ps above. coz from what i have tested after half hour in traffic my car sure loss abit of power than night cruising with you guys.

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.
Just get the 1M the mother of beast and the price is very cheap for that kind of car.
I when to see it at OT and wow it is very nice.
Mark I know what you mean now about the car being small.
I told my dad to get it and he did not fit lol.
