Lastly, I have never heard of N52 cars lemoned for any reason but have heard of many N54 cars lemoned due to the drivetrain
Well, For all us N52 guys, ESS tuning is making a SuperCharger kit that is going to add about 100bhp and is going to be priced around $5k. Kit should be completed sometime in June 2014! Can't wait.
