What engines are you referring to? If it is tuned, and fails, how is it a problem with the engine?  : |
The gen in the F10 M5…
I'm not sure if there haven't been mechanical changes since then.
I also mentioned, "often times tuned", because I've heard of them happening to stock cars and modded, one of which had a Dinan tune.
This might've been the wrong forum to comment on & ask. My apologies. |
I think there have been significant upgrades to both the V8 in the M5 and 550 and also the I6 in the 540 (previously 535). You'd have to look around the forums to find the changes but they've been discussed plenty. Hope that answers your question, at least a little. |
I'll look into it!
I know the B58 is a major upgrade from the N55 both in terms of going to air to water cooling & being a closed deck block now.
