If you are not an engineer, and don't understand why engineers do what they do, there is no point in saying you could have done better than BMW engineers. You are basically saying you don't know what you are talking about, but you can still do better. That doesn't make any sense.
You misunderstood me, i never said i could do a better job or that BMW engineers didnt do an amazing job at developing this engine im just saying with the funds they have they probably could have produced something stronger but i guess they are reserving the highly tuned engine version for the CSl.
