Says the guy running an N54?
The S55 is the best motor BMW made in a long long time, exhaust Note be damned. The throttle response and cooling are amazing.
S14 is slow and... quaint.

Say wha? LOL. Yeah I have an N54 and it's fantastic and my car *came from the factory* like that —-but I didn't stuff it inside an E30 M3 and ruin it.
To call the S14 "slow and quaint" shows you don't understand anything about the E30 M3 or that engine. The S14 was a very special engine...derived straight out of racing and with one of the best 4-cylinder sounds you'll ever hear. There's a time to appreciate pedigree...and period correctness.
