hehe,

thanks AB for the nice pictures, love the Extractor / Header design, bet they do it that way to get the same length for all the 4 'tubes'.

AB, our humble 320i just imagine all the same but half. hehe...

Yeah right! Half of 4.0L is exactly 2.0L ! Hahahahaaaa...

I am thinking the same thing for the exhaust manifold for having so many unnecessary bends.. straighten them up, it should be the same length.. And I thought those high temperature red-ish manifold can only be seen in turbo or F1 cars.. what an awesome sight!

That looks like a very thin but wide piston.. interesting! I guess that's one way of boosting horse power, to have a light weight piston. But then the torque would suffer..

bloody germans..they really know how to design sweet engine

bro, the 'unnecessary' bends is essential in ensuring pathflow of the exhaust gas to be equalised between all the output from the 8 cyclinders..otherwise, u'll get like a sinusoidal wave travelling thru the exhaust duct..that's no good...fluid mechanics elementary...

oh..anybody owns the E92 M3 yet ??
