Thing is N54 is never a 300hp car.

My wife wants me to do the swap to her 3.0si. Should be happening shortly. It's not exactly a thing, and was never done with a complete engine to the best of my knowledge. Not exactly a bolt in, but that's what hotrodding is about afterall. Exhaust is the least of one's worries though ...

N55 is not exactly more reliable either. It would be however easier as the single turbo downpipe would be easier to route around the pesky RH motor mount that sits in the way of twin N54 downtubes.
