Ok so I won't address your N54 comment because at this point, you're just insulting the legacy of our motor. But I will address this slip up comment that you posted. Ok, so I find it funny that most of you hardcore supercharged M3 guys (you know the ones that post all the airport run way videos, and are the most respected members on here), don't change your bearings after supercharging. Instead you just supercharge the car, and rely on babying it for the motor to last. Yet, 9 out of ten times in these pre-supercharger bearing picture threads, you chime in, to support the guy doing it, and join in one side of the argument, and bash all the N/A guys on oem bearings.

IMHO, this is hypocrisy.
