Sorry, stupid question re engines...
Apologies, I have looked elsewhere for a definitive but was unable to find.
My question is, do any of the F15 X5s have the B57 diesels engines, or are they all N57s? TIA |

To put it simply it's same engine, but it's "bolt-ons" that make it different from the factory. Last edited by DuSh; 08-09-2018 at 07:26 PM.. |

That's sad man. I can feel that those diesel BMW engines have tons of tune potential. They can be abused a lot more than our V8s as diesels are more stout. On the other hand - maybe it's good that we don't have them (top versions) in US/Canada as I can imagine some not so legal things that the owners do to tune them - basically they become equivalent to a coal mine in 1 mile radius.
