1. I'm from Germany and nearly every Tuner over here states that it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to make a stable tune for the N55 with more than 360hp (@ crank) because of the following:
  • casted rods,
  • casted pistons,
  • casted crankshaft (biggest problem).
I know, that you want to sell your product and that's O.K., but don't you see a little problem here? Do you think, the casted internals will withstand the power-output which will be generated by a new turbo?

2. German Tuners don't tune N55s build prior to 03/2011 (sometimes 09/2010 is also O.K.). Does the same account to you?
Best,
M
