direct injection is at this moment not possible in the US market, due to the high sulphur level in their gasoline. as long as the ami's don't change that, BMW is forced to offer two different 3-litre blocks; also they can't equipe the V8's with DI for the same reason (hardly worthwile to develop a DI V8 just for the rest of the world)
I thought the 335i was using DI?
