F30 N55 Air Intake Box
Hi Guys
Just happen to see this photo, the new N55 on the F30 has a different air intake box location, is it superior than the one in our E82 N55? Thanks. |

Its interesting to read how BMW have been saying that the next M3 wont just be a modified N55 but by going off this photo and the OPs photo, next M3 looks like a twin turbo N55.
I like the water/air intercooler, wouldnt mind that. |

He is probably right though. I find that the journalism in those magazines is pretty sloppy, the M guy probably said it wouldnt just be a tuned N55 like the tuned N54 in the 1M. I guess it will be a proper M custom job, making it a S55 instead.
