    K cool cool. At first I was confused as to what seta was. Thanks for answering my question. I thought seta was a variation of the I engine. Best way to learn is to ask so I did. Thanks folks

      I meant to type "wasn't". and thanks for the clarification, makes me feel better ab out my car.

        O'rly, I don't understand the intake upgrade at all. the ETA is built for torque as well as a shorter intake runner, you add a longer runner which takes away a bit of torque to try to add where the high RPM's aren't avail. to me it seems totally wrong. the throttle body I could totally understand.

          Makes sense if you change to a 325i cam though.
