i know everyone's sick telling me but
here wer go again :D

initially 215 bhp at flywheel
284 or even 300 degrees cams +15 BHP
C/F box ,biger injectors
Alfa N +30
==== 265 BHP
BUT were another 100 + bhp as on this BM what we all seen on You tube :D
:roll: GOD DAMN
AND the most uplesant question , who, and how often will have to tune this BEAST and after how many miles 500 maybe 700 mls.

For 265hp you will need 2.5 with high compression.

You wouldn't need to tune a race car, you would rebuild the engine every so many races etc.

let's just dreem a little bit.
if i got tuned DTM 360bhp engine ,
Than i detune it to 280 bhp , will it last 70.000 kms ?
or it was build spesificly for 2.000 kmts . and parts were used to last
2.000 kmts ,and by detuning it i woun't make it last longer

You could build a 280hp engine that would last 70,000kms.

A DTM engine would probably last longer if you lowered the rev limit from 10k to 8k but still you wouldn't make any use of the cams...

That does sound properly nice. If people want to listen to a nice 6 cylinder engine note go and watch the BTCC and look for martin bell in his e46. That is the best sounding bmw engine I have heard on full tilt.
