Right now its only confirmed for the X6, but I suspect it will be in the new 5/6/7 series ---

Yeah dont expect it to be in anything cool. Luxo cruiser motor mostly for the 6/7 series, maybe 5 if we’re lucky but it will be only 50-70hp off of the M5 I’d bet so I doubt it. ---

interesting. direct injection. it’s going to have ridiculous throttle response, though the way the wastegate opens will impede flow as it blocks the outlet of the turbine. No biggie though 😉 plenty big enough to get the job done. The twin A2W IC’s are a nice touch. Cleanly integrated. ---
