Well, after many complications that have come up with the supercharger install, i decided to take it off : ( It was as if I lost something so deep for me. Some complications that existed were:
1) Irregular revving at idle
2) Engine heating up quickly
3) Engine shutting off from time to time randomly (AND while driving sometimes)
Basically, i didnt want to deal with my engine getting damaged. Im getting the unbeasted beauty back from RRT today to see if it still drives ok and if the supercharger didnt cause any engine damage.

That's such a same I was excited to see the results.. I am stuck with a 530 or 535 because I want AWD and the XI's only come in these, so I was hoping this would be a great boost for me as well on HP. I could shell out 10k for this, I think it would be worth it. I don't see myself moving to the new 5 series anytime soon or EVER...
