The funny thing is, it's usually scammers who do that to get their post count up. You're someone trying to help. I love this message board sometimes!

2) M2 manifold is why it easily holds up 16+psi at 6k+ rpm, with stock turbo and pump gas.
I realize this is an old thread - but my engine block says N55B30A which is not listed in the table. Any ideas which one it is then? (car: 435i 2015)

Thanks!

I dont think that table from 2018 is even accurate.

I dont have a specific refrence. There was a youtube video circulated a few years ago that seemed accurate. I would google and look for specific BMW documentation, the engine codes are usually in the technical documentation
