I swear I have seen a B12 biturbo somewhere... But in a discussion with a mate recently I couldnt find anything on google etc...

Was it a dream? Has someone bolted two turbos onto a b12 unofficially? Or is it just uber rare?

nope definitely a b12.

Its not on the register so I guess it must have been a conversion done by somebody.

No . Alpina never made a B12 turbo. Knowing how little room is spare in the engine bay i can't imagine any other rich hero attempting it either !. They did make an E34 B10 biturbo though, 507 i think ! :)

It was a dream. Alpina made only B12 in na form. But I know about feew successful made twin turbo M70/M73 engine powered cars. It can be done and it is not as hard as many think.
