Here's a partial quote from the full press release that was published on BMW Australias Press Group website...
"BMW is not re-writing the laws of physics, just the laws of forced-induction.
Turbo lag has been vaporised, fuel consumption slashed and torque ramped to the max, as BMW unveils yet another benchmark-setting power unit.
Backing up its global success with the innovative 507 bhp V10 powerplant for the M5 and M6 super cars (2005 Engine of the Year), and the VALVETRONIC magnesium-aluminium straight-six engines introduced in 2005, BMW is set to tear the wraps off a production-ready biturbo version of its acclaimed petrol-powered six-cylinder.
Retaining the familiar 3.0-litre capacity, the new all-aluminium engine boasts a pair of turbochargers, each feeding a trio of cylinders.
When combined with the efficiency and flexibility of acclaimed BMW VALVETRONIC and double-VANOS technology, the new engine is able to produce an immense 225 kW of power and 400 Nm of torque."
