I'm sure the m54 3.0 will be underpowered, but I can do an engine out service and refresh it, and build it for the supercharger kit. 6 speed with exhaust, cams, and supercharger kit, lowering springs .. come on
Surprisingly, the M54 isn't under power at all. It has a super short stump pulling 1st gear to help get off the line. Here a picture of mine... still enjoying it after 20years with it and still drives as well as the day I drove it off the showroom.
