You've started to add up the $$$...big time.
Brakes, wheels, etc...you're looking at almost as much as it would have cost for the 330 in the first place.

Like Squawks said, the Z4 was upgraded by Dinan and only added 13 hp. And that's the older 3.0 liter engine....with the new one its going to be even tougher for them to up the power. I'm sure they'll find a way, but it ain't gonna be cheap to reach 330 levels of hp.

I noticed that one of their ugrades for the E46 was a High Flow throttle body to supplement the hp gains from the intake & exhaust: $500 plus installation charges...OUCH!
