Fitted the Redstuff last night and specially thanks Ricky,pinguhk and wshine for coming alone for chit chat

Redstuff feels much more solid than the greenstuff with better stopping power, although there are some squeaking at the low speed but i love it.
Hope the squeaking problem will be improved over the time

The next 1- and 3-Series cars from BMW, as well as the Z2 roadster, are rumored to be getting a new range of turbocharged three- and four-cylinder gasoline engines

x16i ? 1.35-litre, 3-cylinder, 163bhp/140 lb-ft
x18i ? 1.35-litre, 3-cylinder, 201bhp/162 lb-ft
x20i ? 1.35-litre, 3-cylinder, 241bhp/192 lb-ft
x23i ? 1.8-litre, 4-cylinder, 273bhp/220 lb-ft
x25i ? 1.8-litre, 4-cylinder, 321bhp/258 lb-ft

http://motoring.sky.com/news/next-bm...r-engines.aspx

this is very good if they have that much HP and save on petro
the x20i ? 1.35-litre, 3-cylinder, 241bhp/192 lb-ft will do for me.
I wish they make it for the F10 too

Have you guys seen this:
http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=76938&hl=

SB with switch control! The guy claims Map 2 is about the same as our SB and you can switch it to Map 4 for very aggressive driving.

Interesting stuff!

Time to sell our SBs and upgrade to this!
