Okay,

My car has about 130k miles and seems to run well enough. But, I desire to turn up the wick a little by increasing the boost. I know several of you have performed this mod. What are the risks? How much boost can I run with pump gas? And what are the projected Hp gains vs. boost? I have access to a machine shop and am not afraid to get my hands dirty. Any help would be much appreciated.

There is a finland based company named "Tuoma perfection" that can give you some answers.They make a kit for the 745i which includes tweaked motronic and more boost.The result of this stuff is 400bhp and masses of torque.See them on their website www.tuoma.com
