Haven't really looked at specs but who knows a n54 bottom end swap could be possible. 09-present have 6 bolt FW. Might be a cheap option. I wish the best for the N55 and to that badass turbo Rob brought to the forefront.

The n54 does not have forged internals. This was beaten to death over and over again in this very forum.
