D there was a 550i breaking in Kam tin, why don't you make an offer for the engine??
then that would mean bye bye 335i after you have finished with it, i think it would cost the same
as all the mods you mention.
plus the 550i is not so thirsty as a MB
You are just kidding or not ? Beside the engine, there are many other components needed to use on the V8. Probably need to buy off everything to make it work.

Hard to tell you the exact figure since I haven't dyno test it yet. But from the feeling I got, it is substantial. Didn't you see Pinguhk's post earlier, I was bitting the tail of a 335i E90. LOL
Deriffic,

About your HID fog light and PDC error, please read below
http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=...20fuse&st=0

Seem can add
1> large fuse to fix the Flickering
2> Add capacitor to fix the Fickering
3> PDC interference by HID fog light, remove or place that transformer to other location.

Wish can help to fix all issue
