yeah man, that sounds like a good plan, there arent many six speed 540i out there, but id look for some, just to see what you find. 328s are definately respectable, but the 540s are pretty quick.
you have an automatic?? surprising you put a supercharger on it with an automatic. nothing against you though. i have a e39 528i and i am tentative to do anything to it because it's an automatic. i would buy a manual but i inherited it from my parents. and they don't want me to sell it.
If you have the sport package with a steptronic ZF transmission you'll be fine. That's what I have. There are a few of us who have supercharged 540i auto's and all is well.
@Fastest540i - Ya man go spend $ 900.00 on eBay for a complete swap and than you'll be happy. Otherwise this is not that great. You'd love that Getrag 6-Speed. A lot light also
@Fastest540i Hey, I've got an automatic 540i myself with the steptronic and I really want to get more power out of the engine cause I know it has the potential but I'm just worried because of the automatic transmission. How much better is the supercharged engine running with the transmission being auto? does it hold up? I would love to supercharge mine.
damn man, i'm licky to see half of that with the e34 530i in my arsenal. do superchargers and/or turbo chargers really increase the mpg that much? and aren't you a member or bf.c?
How many horsepower does it produce? was it hard to install? ^^

Proper modifications and the supercharger actually increases mpg when not racing the car. It actually gets better mpg that what you see here.
