In fact you couldn't have asked for anything better if you had drawn it yourself.

See Lucids post below, they have don nothing wrong!! Its really a matter of fuel efficiency, it has gone to hell and back!!! Hahaha!!

This can not be said anymore which makes me a lot HAPPIER because I dont have to hear that stupidity anymore. If anyone says that I am linking them to this post

+ 1000, I've said this before, you can't compare a moded car to a none moded. A chipped 335 should be put against this one!!

Correct!

I wonder if it would pass emissions in the US? And, we don't know the effects on reliability. There are many trade-offs when you do a mod like this. I am sure BMW-M-Mexico is aware of them, and he has made his choice. (I am not saying one shouldn't do it, but just to be aware that there will be some trade-offs).

100% correct!!!
