335 is honestly a bit easier, have done and seen both done.
xDrive just makes the job suck bigtime, and take a whole lot longer. on xDrive vehicles the engine gets supported from a cross bridge above and the whole front drive and subframe gets dropped down to make the room. Get a RWD car if at all possible, they drive a lot nicer and are easier to work on and keep up with less shit to wear out. |

Well, the main reason I plan to get it is because of the AWD. I would probably go with something else if RWD was an option. If I had a 2 post lift I would be more confident about dropping the drivetrain by myself, with my scissor lift it is going to be a bit harder. Stuck, I saw you had a kind of write up for this, do you have any pictures of dropping the subframe?

Stock turbo with supporting mods and tune should get you near 350-375 RWHP, with Pure Stage 2, around 450 - 500 RWHP. I will have my car back on the dyno in the fall when ambient temps are lower. I dyno'd last fall at 445HP/498 Ft/Lb but I have a better tune and a proper inlet now.
