Best return on investment is nitrous and meth injection. Downside is having to refill the tanks.

Not suggesting meth alone, suggesting nitrous with meth.

The downside is not having a permanent power. That's why it's two different things. |

as a spirited driver, hands down, one should strongly consider boost.

Clarification: My personal downside is I have to remember to push a button when I start it up and close it when I get back. I started with one 10lb bottle. It was a downside until I purchased 3 15 lb tanks and put two in place so I don't have to fill them that often and don't get low on the road. I always have a spare full bottle. FYI- I still have some anxiety just before I use it. I knew just enough to be dangerous when I started. The tanks also take up considerable space in the rear so that would be a downside if I cared. When I went to nitrous years ago I costed out twin rear turbos and a supercharger. I got much more HP and TQ for far less expense with nitrous and Meth and a much easier install. I love the sound of superchargers If there was a supercharger kit based on the Dinan design for around 5 grand I'd have it and then go to a 2 stage nitrous shot of maybe 100 and a 25 or 50 second danger zone shot. IMO, turbos and superchargers are not a hands down decision on our X5s based on a value equation of cost divided by HP/TW gains. X5s are heavy so I focused on increasing low end torque as much as possible from standing start. As you know torque gets you going, horsepower keeps you going. I don't mean to sound like I am promoting nitrous. This is just what I learned along the way. If we were talking about newer BMWs that start from a higher HP/TQ baseline and you can upgrade the turbo system with custom kits that generate huge gains or just add a tune, I agree. I purchased a $1,000 tune that requires no other mods to our X5M that generates an additional 150HP and 198 on the torque side. Takes it over 700HP. That's a great value.

That said I just want a 'little' bit more out of the 4.8is... It's always lovely to give it the heavy right and squirt out of a corner/overtake and surprise the hell out of others... Speaking of which.... does anyone know anything about a Dinan 'stroker' kit supposedly around some time ago?
