Do you have any idea why BMW is not working the 4.4 v8 turbo at least as hard as the 3.0 l6 turbo? BMW is clainming 326HP in the 3.0L turbo in the new 740i and only 40xHP in the 4.4L v8 turbo. That is a big difference in HP/liter between the two.
Are they sandbagging the HP of the larger V8 turbo? As I said before, if the F01 were availale in time for my lease expiration, I'd get that car (assuming it dives as well as I expect).
