Default Need more power

OK Folks, short of going down the supercharger route, (but if I can find one, I will have it) ideas welcome here too. I need ideas for a quick fix for the horsepower blues.

I know I should have bought the SRT but the deal on this was TOO good!

The driver, pun intended is that I will be racing against a manual Z4 3.0, with 30 Kilowatts more power and 80 Kilograms less weight that is driven by my business partner and NEED to kick his ...

Chips are OK but which one, PowerChip is here in AU so I can do that but is it in this boards opinion the best move?

Already have put a straight through exhaust on and will rework the cold air intake this weekend.

So let your creative ideas flow!

If you are really determined, then you should probably consider pulleys too.

I have the powerchip for 91 octane and noticed a big improvement. The 93 would be better if you have the fuel. You may want to get the sprint booster to fix the throttle response -- not more HP but quicker take off.
