I doubt very much that our F85's have more than announced , even with a higher octane.
I'm filling in 98 octane all the time.

They beat me to the response below.
BMW is starting to beat Audi in their own game of understating power output. All the new Ms are now hiding power output. The new M3/M4 for example, makes 480+HP to the crank (not 430HP).
That's why we were so shocked how Audis were able to have better numbers on the track compared to BMWs in the past, but they have the same power and more weight. The secret is on the dyno, Audi S cars were making way more power than advertised. BMW M division are doing the exact same thing, LOL.
