Found that on m5board:
"I was in Germany last week and spoke with a guy that works as a designer for BMW. He told me that the 335 engine had been detuned so it would not cast a shadow on the upcoming V8 M3 engine. He also said that they are having problems with the new M3 engine and it´s not putting out the power that they had predicted..."

So it could be there's (maybe still) a problem with the V8 not putting out the desired power!!! Whereas I hope that's only a unfounded rumour it could cause a massive delay if it turns out to be right!! Maybe Scott can hush a bit!??
