Faster than Speed of Light?? How?

I would be delighted to see more of Bimmer modification talks in the technical forum i.e. engine upgrades, etc.
Unlike typical Japanese hard-drives, Bimmers seem over complicated (especially for my engine) to build up in order to gain more h/power & torque. Where the Jap car makes could go for extensive cylinder head pot & polish, brush ups, lightened cams, pulleys, and others - and drifting kick *ss!
Im not sure (due to the lack of compatible tuners here in Malaysia) what other mods that are available for my M43TUB19.
For example, Ive swapped to a bigger underdrive pulley, changed to Denso Iridium s/plugs, Magnecor racing red leads, K&N FIPK, Supersprint catback system & the Dastek Unichip ECU remapped. It turned out to be not as fast as I expected to be. And yes, d answer to my question is to buy an M3 or M5.
I'll be installing Nitrous Oxide very soon. However, with a bit of extra knowledge on such matter could be beneficial since I do not have a clue if this will work for my engine or it would harm the engine instead.

Anyone with here with ideas & advice? Thanks

Rule of thumb for N20 is stay under 50% of you horsepower in nitrous and use copper or iridium plugs (NO platinum)! If it's your baby make sure to feed it with a bottle
