Your intake tract is the same as a 525i (actually your throttle body
MIGHT be smaller, I'm not certain) and it makes 42bhp more. So your
intake is not a limiting factor.
For a MAF upgrade you'd need M52 parts and the electronics are a big
problem in this regard.
A used M50 2.5 would be your best bang for the buck.
