I think this is what attracts me to the stock N55 setup. I don't have to tickle the rpms near redline to feel that strong seat of the pants acceleration. I enjoy being able to shift around 4k and still having max tq. I don't want to redline my car every day to get the last drip of power and tq out of it.

But at the end of the day there really is no replacement for displacement. I too have quite a bit of seat time in C63s and I really don't think a turboed motor will ever feel that good. If I could have a 6.2l beast and still get 35 mpg on the hgihway I'd be all over that but it's jut not a reality at this time.
