It's not possible. Look at the design. It's been debunked at e46 Many times

ROFL... autpartsway shipped the disa to the wrong address... and their response was that the part shipped, and shows 'delivered.' Paypal dispute mode engaged.

HTF did they fook this up, considering that their web form has the right address... maroons. Ultramaroons!

The "debunking" got it wrong. Here's another example, where the guy lost compression in cyl #3 for no apparent reason. This also a M54 engine. Had misfire codes thrown at him. Everything happened suddenly.... Did a bunch of tests, then opened the engine. Here's what he found (the marks of the steel pin are clearly visible - the engine ruined):

Here is the post. You can read through it. For debunking.....
