But no, that's fine, I accept those terms. The amount sounds fine and we can pick the cause later on after the results are known. |

Guys, just belive that reason why they make it rev "nearly 8000rpm" is that they can make power on low boost. Engine breath better on high revs so no need to add boost so much, means smaller turbo lag, cooler charged air and no overheat issues. If redline is somewhere about 7200rpm ( In my mind "nearly 7000rpm"), is big mistake for Bmw Motorsport.

I feel BMW is going for a first with this engine:
Individual throttle bodies in a production turbo i6. That's going to allow for the response (no turbo lag) and high redline. |

BMW first introduced it back in 2001 on the 316ti compact no need for throttle bodies with this system. |

Cover up the tach and let everyone on the forum drive the car and guess what the redline is, would be entertaining to see the range of guesses.

It seems that the performance envelope of new sports cars/coupes is just getting more and more impressive. It used to be that fast vehicles were hitting 60 in the low 4's, but it seems everything that is coming out now is sub 4. The new Vette alone has 460 hp and 465 tq with the performance exhaust. Mustangs and Camaro's are getting more potent and I am curious to see how M will approach the new M3/M4. I realize that a motor and its power is just one of the many variables that makes up speed, etc., however, it would seem that you have to get more power just to stay in the game.

+1 or at least a firm date for more key specifications like the Frankfurt auto show. A "concept" with engine and steering specs would be awesome to look forward to at Frankfurt.

Man I feel smart. Drought, not Draught. Either way we need some information to hold us over. Is it 2, 3 or 16 turbos? I know patience is a virtue, but screw that!
