An e90 or e91 with Xenos would be expensive as they are rare and usually high spec with a higher price tag.
Also you can still tune the 325I n53 engine and get a big gain from just a remap. There are a few dyno tuning companies in the UK that are getting 260bhp with just a £350 map. The manifold just gives it another 10bhp odd making the engine identical to a 330i but mstyle are the only company able to get the 3 stage manifold working at a heavy cost of £600.

I would love an e92 but sadly my car is a bit of a posh workhorse ... It's used to carry the dog and music gear quite regularly so really need the boot space.
But that is good to know it can have a decent gain from just a remap
that's the news I was hoping for.
I'm growing imPatient as well because I have viewd a well looked after 325i m sport in blue water metallic for a decent price, only thing it doesn't have is xenons but would leave me enough pocket money to do a few mods right off the back so has got me thinking as always.
