Ditch the spare, to start. Then you can do cams, port the head, do the valves, lighter wheels and all sorts of stuff and indeed, your car will be a bit faster, for a lot of money. Unless you go FI, you're not getting the M54 any faster. It's a 3-liter from the early 00's pushing 230hp that's all-aluminum. It's basically at it's limit.

I am finding that E46 and E39's models generally use 2.93, 3.15, 3.46, 3.62, and 4.1 between all the models and wagons.
