Btw, I've driven the Z4 35is, and it seemed less of an engine than my map 3 JB3 equipped car, even in the lighter Z4. So, I think the cooling would be the biggest draw, IF it doesn't limp on the track in stock form.

I dont see anything wrong with tranferring technology from one car to another. Especially if M-division had their hands in the development of the motor from the Z4-35is. Just an opinion. With a brand-new, design-from-scratch technology, there is potential for new problems. To me, I am pleased BMW in general, and M-division in particular, have had a few years tweaking this motor. Now, it is "just right" for the 1M.
