The intake with DISA seems to create pressure with valves to get those Tq and Hp spikes, why cant someone take this concept further?
Also in anyone noticed that the 2011 n52 with DISA in the f10 5 series & f25 x3 has added heat sinks to the 2nd and 4th intake pipe on the manifold & a new engine cover. Wonder what the logic is, the engine is only tuned to be 10hp more and 30 lb more tq over the 230hp in 328i

Can't find the thread, maybe someone on here could chime in, but there is someone on here with a built N52 running e36 ITB's. The valvetronic is locked fully open which makes use of the itb's, and he's making some serious power.
I'm not sure if this will yield more power than building a better intake manifold because I'm positive valvetronic was made to make power as well as retain economy. Someone would need to look into our options regarding this and make some goodies for us.
The N52 is a damn good performance motor in need of some true N/A upgrades.
