Nice mod, but I have a feeling that after BMW starts eating the cost of replacing a bunch of twin turbos under warranty, they'll mod the cars to block that. Or at least stop covering the replacement.
Thats kind of why I'm iffy about the 335i.. twin turbos are high maintainence and cost alot for that maintainence. Although, supposedly these BMW turbos are supposed to be pretty reliable.
Still, I'd prefer a normally aspirated engine like the 400hp V8 beast going in the M3
