As you can see this new power plant will be very potent, but definitely not a top end screamer as its predecessor as horsepower plateaus around 5,500 rpm. That sprint to redline wont yield any more power.

Almost seems as if BMW artificially created a high redline to appeal to the normally aspirated gearheads/magazines.

How do you figure peak torque at 1500rpm?
