Just what were the issues? I've had my car for a year and a half and did the DInan stage 2 upgrade. I have not had one issue with the engine or anything on the car for that matter.

Just better to be informed.
Just do your research and use the search function.

For a vast majority of N54 owners there have been no issues.
Lots of power, great fuel economy.
