745i turbo motor was an option for the 333i in SA. You can acutually bump it up with fpr, injectors and cam and get 550 easy. 600 max.
I am thinking about putting this set up in my 88 535i.
Here is what my car will look like when I am done with the custom ABS body kit (pshoped for conceptual purposes) should be sweet with 5550hp.

The 745 turbo motor was NEVER an option in a south african 333i , though no doubt several have been turbocharged by the after market including a sapphire blue (?) one in this country which i believe the specs above pertain to.

euro 3

it sounds like that spec has been taken from a magazine feature, of the same car that pete speaks of.

he was at donington about 6 years ago. i remember speaking to him(he had a stutter so i was there for a while). i remember it was fosale. 10k i think...

it was turbocharged. and had around 450bhp.
