Engine side is one thing but the transmission is most likely not the same as in the 330i due to the electric motor being in the same housing and replacing the torque converter.

Even if it would be the same I am not sure if 700NM which is some 300 NM up from the qouted factory figures will be healthy in any way as the torque would be converted through the electric motor instead of the regular torque converter.
I have contacted Schnitzer and they replied that they are looking into a tune for the 330e. I would think some clever torque management in the first gears is wise?

It's probably really good once already moving though. I've been waitting for my 330e Msport plus edition for 6 month now... With the lockdown i couldn't had the car delivered i hope it's alright now. Definitely going to give it a tune if i got lucky with a 330i engine instead of 320i...
