This is currently the best supercharger out there. It's not exactly cheap, but it really maximizes your gains. For neck snapping acceleration, I think it's well worth it. The gains are different from car to car, I know some guys pushing 500HP with the same kit plus bolt ons. My friend recently purchased this same kit, I cant wait to see it in action.

The GEN2 runs about $11,000, add another 1,500 - 2,000 for installation.
Since you're stock there's a lot of restrictions that will hold the car back. So ontop of that 13k, you will 'need' to upgrade your:
-Exhaust
-Cats
-Headers
-BBK

It's a pricy project, but the end result is all worth it. Maybe you guys can make it the official bangbus trackcar, and enter it into events :D
That = priceless.

Here's some boosted E46Fanatics/M3Forum guys:

BTW: The 6K supercharger your parking lot buddies were talking about is for the 3Series. Which boosts another 100HP or so like you said.
