i assume it is equivalent to our 328 since technically its a 3.0

The E92 330 is a different tune of the N52 engine. The engine puts out about 272hp in the euro 330 versus our US spec 328i's 230hp. This is the same engine/tune as found in the MY07 X3 3.0si. Their 325i is actually (remains) closer to our 328i. Btw the E93 will debut a new family of N53 engines with DI.
