265kW from 3.0L, versus 270kw from 4.0L?
The BMW is kicking its butt. |

I think the standard BMW 3.0TT engine runs about the same amount of boost as the FPV motor too, so both engines have about the same specific outputs

Wait until the twin turbo 5.5 litre V8 M series X6's come out. They will cost a bomb but they will sure be able to shift their fat, ugly bodies quickly.

I think what the Op is trying to get at, is the tuned aftermarket power of the BMW with a twin turbo doesn't come close to the tuned aftermarket power of the single turbo Ford I6 The torque is a fair bit lower than a tuned Ford I6T too

A quick google search came up with one mob who claiming to be able to make 500hp and 500ft/lb from the BMW. And another claiming 422rwhp. Thats equivalent to a 563rwhp (419rwkw) Falcon. Not to many of them around eh? http://www.burgertuning.com/results.html http://www.goodspeedperformance.com/...35-power-packs Btw I dont really care whos kw numbers are bigger, I am just trying to put things into perspective. |

Or maybe Hamann has a reputation to maintain and does not want their creations lasting only 20,000km or so before major maintenance needs to be done.......

I don't know I think it needs more air ducts then throw in another rear spoiler then it'd be alright.
