Agree. BMW should be able to produce much more HP out of that engine for the same price but they know don't have to. They know that owners with the cash that want to keep warranties intact will pay more for minimal gain. That being said, I do notice a difference between the 2 engines. Prob not $2300 difference but I'll take it. If I did not lease my cars, I would most certainly do something else like procede, JB1, etc.[/QUOTE]
I guess you can always remove the procede or JB1 and clear codes. Thats the beauty of these systems.
Less money and about 30-40 more ponies.
