Stew Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Is it all new or is it a reworked version of (or identical to) the E39 M5 engine? Quote
Kev946 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 All new I believe. 200kg lighter than the previous 6 cylinder m3 engine. Also uses pulse air to create a supercharger effect with 0.22 bar of pressure... Quote

Guest prescience Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Sounds like a poor man's turbocharger to me? Unless it's air injected on the exhaust stroke to burn unused fuel or something? Nice looking engine though Quote
