Exactly. I initially thought it def had more power than the m550i motor since the 850i does 0-60 in about .02 sec faster but a forum members brought to my attention that the gearing in the 850i is a lot shorter in the first 3 gears which would attribute to faster acceleration. Guess we’ll find out soon enough.
