I am not saying it cant be fixed, but I am not sure those issues can be fixed with IT legal mods. Not 100% sure though.

That ended any thoughts of a 330 for me, its already expensive enough. I think the 328 might be the way to go though.
I would tend to agree with the 99-00 328i being the car of choice. Main reason being the use of the ZF transmission - the additional torque would be nice too. The E-46 already produces gobs of low end torque with the Double Vanos. I am contemplating switching to ITR as a 328i in the offseason. -100 lbs too!
