I think it would be hard for them to get to the HP numbers (~350) on the N52 without substantial work and development--aka a new engine....

It seems even the ///M engines are going the "shared" route, so an improved N55 is probably the best we can hope for this car....

But a nice NA 3.0 inline 6 would sure be nice.....I agree with you there....
