But I was starting to get burnt out already that no one would try anything new other than a 3 stage swap. Was finally going to give in and pick up a 3 stage and head down to Georgia from Ohio and get a Dyno tune! But not that I found this forum I'm going to head to NC now lol. Hope to hear some details on the n54 swap, as far as what I need, and cost! Thanks in advance.

What's in Georgia?

As you can see , Bob is testing out his alpha N tune with 3 stage intake and hopes to achieve 250+ whp. I am curious how the powerband looks like with 3im but I think it might yield more tq than n54 intake swap.

Depending on his results, I might head down myself and get the new tune done.

Oh that would be amazing. Stock E46 M3 was producing about 280.

Any info on this, like expected lift or duration?

I'm in love with this idea.

No info I can release yet. We are getting custom cams back for our S62 from the same company, they are bigger and badder than a set of Schrick cams

I know its not an n52, but I'll post some dyno numbers on Friday.

Cams are going into our e30 track car

I was seriously considering getting e9x M3. But with this, hell... why bother?

With about 270whp, it would be in almost same category as stock e46 m3 or stock 335. Granted, tq would be nowhere close to those, but peak hp would be close.

That s62 we have, start off making 345hp, tuned, custom made headers, & cams is now making 421hp (76hp gained) and I still need to adjust the tune some more.
