i think that may depend on what you mean by faster. from what ive learned the "e" motors have more torque than the "i" motors and have the jump on quick accel. but I believe as far as top speed the "i" model is faster. but stay tuned for a more accurate, in depth response.
yep, stock for stock i/iS > e/ES but with minor mods you can unleash a crap load of power in the e motors...

they bolt right in with no mods, they a very sizable power increase in my car all throught the rev band all the way up to the 5500rpm redline...but i already had a chip, full manifold back exhaust and modified the ignition about 3-5 more degrees advanaced than even the chip did...so it really helped...
they are the Mustang 5.0 injectors they are the bosch yellow top 19lb design 2 injectors..with the 4 pintle caps...

do you know if the injector mod would work well with a e36 325i with just a chip and CAI? I'm talking about just dropping the injectors in and not having to mod anything else.
