Can the drive train, trans, etc. , in the 128i handle the increase?

About warranty, that's a good point. Any excuse whether relevant or not for them not to cover something saves them money. It's wierd to see how people live and die around that warranty. It's part of the reliability problems BMW has (real and imagined) that creates this whole dysfunctional behavior.

It would be fun to mod the car while it is still relatively new, but I guess that's not possible.
Of course it will handle 300hp. the 130i in europe got the exact same engine as 128i and it's pushing 270hp stock. 125i/128 is like a detune ECU version of 130i.
