Which is this kit?
Will it not put too much strain in the engine?
With a 3.0i ... 300-350 HP .. Only 100-110 hp/l on a BMW Engine .
I just want a little bit more torque thats it....
If you want the same power as the V8 you can supercharge .
maybe I should just get the sprint booster after all lol

Get a Twin Screw 8psi from ESS, install headers w/o cats, exhaust, Hiop FI Camshafts with tuning.
Or a ASA TM15 Centrifugal kit boosting 1 bar and u are probably looking at 380-400hp.
but yr car gota be a manual trans to take all this torque.

Nick, why are you going to change to M54B30 when ESS Tuning can take your car from 170hp to 280hp with your M54B22..? Or do you want more power then that..? 
A good friend have ESS at his M54B22 and he is very happy with it. I think he had the ESS for the 3rd year now.. No problems yet..
M54B22 with ESS, result - 279.8hp..
