Not in HP..... the M5 has 86 more HP no matter the performance.

The OP wanted more power while retaining his factory warranty....... The only way to do this is to buy a car with more power!

That's how some lawyers cash in on naive people. If you're feeling lucky when BMW voids your warranty, take your case to court and see how it all works out. Then maybe you'll have a better understand of the terms and conditions of you new vehicle warranty.
A quick search of his posts, the last 3 months reveals very rare deviations from the following obsessive topics (Turn ons):

1. Engine Oil
2. HPFP Failures
3. Warranty questions related to the installment of aftermarket components

People Please,

All I can say to the OP is adding HP without voiding warranty is like cheating on you wife without any consequences. You're just asking for trouble, so why risk your warranty? But to each his own. Good luck.

Sorry, but we're talking about the US . I bet there's no 4-yr maintenance program where you're from. And no ambulance-chasing lawyers either .

Mormons live in the US....


But yeah, no maintenance problem or lawyer who just want to sue. The car also costs 300% more.
a 320i is over 100k
