Eng continued at JICA level in 2004, finishing seventh in the Margutti Trophy, and 31st in the European Championship. One highlight however was that Eng won the Italian Open Masters, holding off Wittmann again by five points. He moved to ICA level in 2005, but only contested the Italian Championship and the Open Masters. Eng finished in the top ten of both series, ranking ninth in the Open Masters and tenth in the Italian Championship.

Eng made his car racing debut for ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg in theFormula BMW ADAC series in 2006.

Eng continued in the ADAC series in 2007, and would go on to finish third in the championship behind the Eifelland Racing cars of Klingmann andDaniel Campos-Hull who took twelve of the eighteen race wins between them. Eng did take one win atBarcelona but only after Klingmann was given a ten-second penalty for dangerous driving.^[2]

Eng did make up for this in some aspects by winning the end of season World Final from pole position. Having switched to Mücke Motorsport, Eng dominated the race before leading home Wittmann, Klingmann andSebastián Saavedra. This earned him a test for theBMW SauberFormula One team, which he undertook in2008. Eng completed his FBMW career by driving for Mücke in theinaugural season of theFormula BMW Europe championship. As he was a guest driver, he was ineligible to score points. His best finish came atSpa, when he finished fourth in a wet race.
