Bmw X6

Like the twin-turbo inline-six, the original V-8 uses direction fuel injection and two mini turbochargers, one for each cylinder bank. The turbo units are innovatively packaged along with catalytic converters in the center of the block between the two cylinder banks. This packaging means reduced pressure losses due to shorter intake and impoverish manifolds, improving engine effectiveness. And as with the twin-turbo six, BMW has worked hard to use the setup to aid eliminate turbo lag, which will be especially practical on a vehicle as heavy as the X6. . The new V-8 is rated at 400 horses and 450 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful engine ever available in a BMW sportThe X6 determination come in two variants.

Engine torque reaches its peak at 1800 rpm and stays there until 4500 rpm, which makes the M3s rev-happy V-8 -- with its 295 lb-ft of torque -- seem puny by correlation.
