very very nice Stiky , thats why i like the old school M division. Dispalcement + high redline + the possibility to upgrade it with an almost lagless supercharger if you feel the power is not enough....

we will see when they both get released and come back to this :-D

yes, but bmw is not mercedes. BMW already stated that their future M engines will be modified standard engines. I expect a (not so heavily modified) tuned N20 for the M2, a tuned(probably the most...

well it will simply have lag and you will have to live with it or take the auto tranny to smooth it out.
Just as it happens with the M5 the old 1seriesM(no auto in this case), the M6 XM5 etc etc....

this times are gone. Its not like when they had a standard 6cyl for the normals and a race 4 cyl for the M folk.



it will be a tuned BMW engine anyway, nothing special. Not hig revving etc.
So...

the problem ist, bmw already figured out some years ago that the M Badge sells more than the M philosophy. It will sell because it is an M2 thats it.
But im waiting for final confirmation, after...

from what i have read around, chances are huge it will be a tuned N20 (4 cyl turbo) to compete with the CLA AMG and finally the golf R and RS3.
But im still hoping for a detuned M3 engine.(new M3)

that would be just like the M235i (it doesnt make that difference any more).
A real M2 CSL with a motorsport engine (dedicated engine) would be fun. High revving V8 or straight 6. (maybe a...

yeah :-D
i found one on youtube thats sounds almost the same:

they say you hear this quiet often as soon as you remove the DPF...
Im not sure, i...

i got it all out today and the wagner IC installed :-D
but now the turbo howls(maybe it did before, but i dindnt realize it. After a tuning im always slightly paranoid :-D), i hope there want be a...

what a shame.... i hope the M3/M2 will do better. But they will be turbocharged, downsized and with a everyday car redline.... and that already gives them a fat minus point (for me).

my car will be done this way on 7 May. I finally found someone who will remove and replace the DPF and install the new intercooler(+ software adjustment all in one) but it wasnt easy(in germany)....

from the infos i have now i would go for the 235i. The M2 PROBABLY will be a 4cyl so investing in some propre mods for the 235i(6cyl) could even beat a modded M2. (The M2 engine will be quiet pushed...

isnt the grill double spoked for the M3/M4 in the recent spy pics? Dont know if this is the real thing.... seems to normal...

i dont get this cars.. the final goal is to spend less or to be green, and thats cool.

But this car want be green nor will it allow you to spend less on you mileage. (and for sure it is not cool)...

i have to say thats a very nice setup you have done here.....

thanks for the info. We have the very same transmission so i will ask them to not taper anything.... i wan't come up to 850nm any way.

no problems with the tranny? i have almost the same parts (without turbo upgrade). They have still to be installed but the tuner warned me that more than 700 nm gets really dangerous for the...

well, my hope was that the FWD would just settle in the "1 series plattform", so the bmw 1series(the future one), mini, next X1 and all future derivates of that platform.
But as it seems the FWD is...

z1 would make more sense. The 1series is going FWD so X1 will do that too(saw an article somewhere about that) and a Z1 would only make sens on that very same platform.
And therefor a Z2 based on...

what if the new m3 has an electric turbo assisting the other ones? lag would be gon than... but you dont know in depth specs and driveability ist not about beeing faster.
but you really dont get it,...

you konw.. turbos... lag. air compression takes time... turbo spools at low rpm and has to spool higher to get air compressed after yu floor the pedal... more boost more lag...simple physics...
any...

than the second statement applys to you, you simply dont get it. You lack this skill. Thats fine for you as you can drive every $#@!ty motor out there and as long as it has enough power you want...

this question is so stupid... it just shows you never drove one and if you did you probably have no connection to the car you drive if you dont get it. Every person in forums around the world, that...

very nice, and very nice sound too.
