While this engine should have ended up in the 1M... it looks like it is destined for the new M3. I have heard from three sources so far that the next M3 will be based on the N55 and called the S55. It will have vanous head and forged camshaft/crankshaft and pistons and rods. I hear the power output will be in the 440 PS range. It also might have some pretty cool CF use of part slike a CF driveshaft. I also hear the DCT is all new with "more gears" than currently employed. I guess in time we shall see whats what.

So which are you reckoning it is, 440ps or 452? I'm no hp junky (as I've stated many times an engine does not define an m-car) but I have a hard time believing the car will only have 433bhp, that's a mere 19 horsepower bump from the E92 (yes, i know the tq is up but hp sells). My money is on at least 460ps, 453bhp.....but I have no sources for this
