All valid points, but I had less than $3k into that engine. I got lucky and was able to buy a former weekend track day car that already had quite a bit of the mods done to it. All I had to do was make it a bit more street able as it was my daily driver. As far as reliability goes, the BMW wins lol. The VQ37VHR, as great as it is, is just so much more mechanically complex and has so many more possible failure points compared to an OBD1 S50. Agree that if you did all those same mods to the VQ you would have significantly more power, but you're also comparing a 3.7L to a 3.0L so that's kinda to be expected.
