[QUOTE="supergripen, post: 291308, member: 1254"] supercharging the N52 will be a very costly affair i think,especially with the material used in the N52's constuction.chances are,the magnesium alloy component of the N52 won't be able to withstand the increase in abuse that naturally comes with FI,especially the heat component of the equation. it is possible tho,for instance replacing mag-alloy with steel/alu,but it'll be really costly.makes u wonder if anyone will have the guts to pour in money to develop a kit for these new hightech lower toleranced engines.. to me,these new lightweight engines are best left alone.they are so finely balanced in every way that changing anything might just disrupt that balance,and you'll end up doing more damage than good. but then again,u never know..
