I believe its also air-water intercooler and many of the features are similar to the B58's but its got higher rated parts for sure.. to upgrade all the parts to match the M3 (if it can even be done and tuned properly together) would prob take more time and $$$ than it takes to just buy an M3.. beyond straight-line power M3 handles like a sportscar

what not enuf power for ya? for now I find stock torque more than adequate for dd in sport mode
I would prefer less turbo lag in the low rpms (I know ppl say its smooth but I feel a lot of engine hesitancy in first/second gear). Also, I FULLY LOADED (which includes track package) this bad boy to like a $64,000 MSRP. So I am not looking to do that in M3 form. Plus I want AWD for ski trips etc (hence no M3). Therefore, I am looking for ways to increase performance and get as close as possible.
