(Probably after the tu that happened to get the new PPK to 335hp) This was a true German engineer who you could tell English was not his first language that they flew in for the 4 series release. I even asked him in September of last year what engine would be in the new M3/4, and he just smiled at me..
Ahh I misread, I thought he said that the N54 made more power even though they're pretty identical. The N54 is definitely more CAPABLE than the N55 is of making more power.

I thought he said the N54 out of the box made more power than the N55.
