Hi guys I’m new to this forum and I wanted to know your opinion about the car named in the title. It is a low mileage car and in perfect condition and I wanted to ask if anything in this car is mechanically upgradable or worth upgrading since it has a N43 engine that was mostly built for city driving than putting power on the wheels. At this time it’s literally stock as any bmw car can be and I really want some more power than it already produces(122whp).:help

Most of us are in the States, and your car is not available here (our cars all have the Inline 6, some have the turbo). I wonder if you are going to get very help from us.

Most aftermarket upgrades, for any engine, only help at the higher rpm's, and whatever you do, other than adding a turbo or supercharger, will probably only increase power by maybe 10%, again, only at much higher rpm's.
