330i - 225hp 225 tq
530xi - 225hp 220 tq

I think his intake and straight pipes are killing his HP!

No, 2001 330i (e46 right?) has M54 engine , 2007 530i has N52 engine.

M54 = 225 hp / 220 torque
N52 = 268 hp / 232 torque

correct me if I am wrong.

good stuff!

Got a similar story. My buddy bought a brand new audi a5 and wanted to raced my 04 545i. From a rolling start at 50 mph, I took off like a bat to 140 mph and he was like 5 cars behind me. lol When we pulled over to a stop, he was pissed off and told me I had a beast of car. To make a long story short, He traded the a5 for a s5 the next day. Lol

Nope, you're right. But those are stock #'s and he clearly said the E46 is far from stock.

i have a 2007 530i and raced my buddies 2005 530i and there is a big difference. I even drove his car and the n52 just seems to run a lot faster...especially in the upper range.

Got me wondering what a 550i and m5 feel like lol...
