g40 lump is more reliable, bit rarer. due to its dimensions there is less wear between the scrolls, i think i'd rather go for a g40 engine conversion, its lighter too so it would'nt affect the handling characteristics either.
plus you can alsy fit an M45 eaton from a cooper S too.

saw an eaton'd G40 at E38, it was a totally standard exterior aswell, so it looked like 1.0l or 1.4!!
