Hi Gang,
Ok, I am not gonna say where I got this screen shot from. I
will say that in my quest for a German flash tune... I came accross this little tibit/jewel!
1M code named
"Pyrat" by BMW...
It looks to me that this is confirmation that the
new 1M will have
250 Kw N54engine. That is
340 HP. Engine code:
N54B3OTO
What is even
more interesting is the
highlight text! Looks like BMW is thinking about a special
US only model with 332 Kw or 451 HP! I personally think this will be the engine that ends up in the next M3. I don't think BMW will offer a 1M with this sort of HP power. But seeing it on the screen is very interesting indeed!
It also looks to be the very same 1M Engine code:
N54B3OTO, which would suggest that with only a tune/SW the 1M engine will make another 100 Hp!!! Food for thought!
Also of interest (IF you look up that engine listing) is the fact that BMW will also have a
135iS model in 2012. Same HP though, at
225Kw or 306 Hp. The 135iS has engine code:
N55B3OUO
And... if you keep looking up that list you can seee various engines of interests.
