A good run last nite
Had a 550i run me last nite. I think we both surprised each other. Race started at around 70mph. I honestly wasn't expecting any fight whatsoever, but this guy had some upgrades. I ended up pulling a few car lengths or so by 5th gear. When we pulled off the fwy next to each other, he asked if I was an M5. LOL. To his defense it was dark and he said he was running 550whp with a twin turbo setup his buddy did. I told him I was a 3 series (which I'm sure he saw after I pulled away). He was blown away that a 3 series could have that type of power. I think he was even more blown away when I pulled my iPad off the dash and said I have a pure stage 2 turbo and a jb4 piggy back tuned "with this iPad". He was trippin to say the least.
Anyway, guys.. That top end power is insane.. Real world stuff right there. |

Do we know how much HP/Tq the X-Drive + AT setup can handle before we start breaking stuff?
I'ld imagine AWD + 500 Ft Lbs + No Tq limitation = 0-60 in the 3 second range, and 10 second 1/4 miles... |

I won't say not optimal, but it wasn't designed for performance. The N55 is offered in practically every model so the focus was on efficiency and low-end. Thing is, there was still a lot of room left for BMW to go without sacrificing a material amount of drveability and response resulting in much greater output. There's really no practical benefit to a turbo which is fully spooled by 1900 RPM unless you're in a diesel truck used for towing.
