Is the 330i G20 capable of doing 350 hp?(Leased) Id like you make my car push near 350 hp and keep it that way long term while still reliable rather than make it reach 350 hp then have something blow. If so what mods besides Jb+ can help me reach this mark so I can keep up with my brothers 540i B58 better. I normally hang from 30-70 mph head to head against him but after that the B58 launches off. I'd like to see what other mods I can do to keep up further if not beat his B58 m sport.

350 is a huge number. While it may be possible, it’ll involve more than just a tune. You’ll be looking at forged internals (possibly), FBO (Intake, catless DP, IC, CP), custom tune. A 350hp car is at least stage 2, if not 3. By then, I’m assuming it’ll be faster than a B58 540i too.

But is it worth it on a leased car? I’m not sure. If you can install bolt ons by yourself, it might be okay since you can save on labor and then sell it to get back some of the money you spent once you return the car. If you aren’t mechanically inclined (like me), it’ll be okay only if you have a lot of money to blow (paying for labor to install and then again to uninstall it once you’re due for lease return).

It isnt a huge number, catless downpipe and a good custom tuner is about all it takes.
