That would also break the current record of hp/liter which is held by the CLA45 AMG. Maybe stroke the N20 to 2.3 liters, maybe.
Or, the M division takes the N55 and increases it by another 35 hp.
The 1M is an I6 TT.
The M3/4 is an I6 TT.
I'm seeing a trend here.
I'm being realistic and not letting wishful thinking takeover.

I think the M2 will be more like 350-360 hp inline with the CLA45...
they are between a I4 and an I6.... If they put an I4 it will be harder for people to tune it to M4 numbers than if they put a detuned I6 like in the F80
we'll just need to wait 2 years to find out
Also I can say:
M5 went from V10 to V8
M3 went from V8 to I6
so 1M will go from I6 to I4
see the trend there ?
