well the motor is 40lbs lighter than the current n54, so that is definitely an improvement.

i like the twin turbo since i believe it helps w/low end and there isnt as much lag. i trust bmw

As for tuning potential vs the N54, no one knows yet. But on paper, the N55 is an improvement over the N54 in stock form.
