M modified the N63 buillt by BMW, with the manifold (etc) and it has become known as the S63 first in the trucks, and the S63Tu (adding vanos) with the M5/M6. They have ZERO production experience with turbos until these offerings, meaning they are their beta products that we all have to live with and the growing pains surely to follow.  |
You think what you what to, there is a lot more that goes on behind the scenes.
And as the nice poster above also reinforced from my post... BMW M developed one hell of a turbo motor for F1 and it won. These guys do more things behind the scenes that never get the M name on it than you can even imagine.
