no direct injection?
Looking at the diagrams, it looks like there is not direct injection on the new M3 mill... curious about that... seems strange with the rumoured 12:1 compression! the injector is definatley located right in front of the intake port just downstream of the throttle body.

N53 is the direct injected (HPI in BMW parlance) natuarlly aspirated I6. It starts shipping right about now I believe (March model changed) in the E93 and E93 330i, but only in countries with clean enough fuel (i.e not North America). In its first iteration it makes the same power as the highest output N52 (272hp), but with much greater fuel economy (I think 15% or so).
