Cabrio is heavier due to reinforcements to bodyshell and I find moving off could be improved. Car is a daily driver, stop start traffic in KL, highways to Shah Alam. Weekends or free days I like to drive along trunk roads off the highway where traffic volume is low and enjoy a good blast. Overtaking response is probably blunted by the weight of cabrio. I doubt that I would go for a blast on a track with this car. My fuel bill presently is about RM200 every 5 days... Ouch!!My conclusion is I obviously need more torque. I dont need a high revving engine with top end power. Practical options are 1) 2.7 (stock) eta conversion2) 2.7 eta block with 325i head 3) aftermarket supercharger - been to see Turbo SangSo... those are my requirements and options. I would appreciate your views and recommendations. Advice on costs involved, reliability and ease of maintenance/parts will obviously be a factor.Thanks in advance. Much appreciated.Docazani</p></blockquote><p></p>
