yeah, running two ECU's to monitor a half motor each. Glad BMW gave up on that idea quickly (enough)

They actually used that in the e32 750's with the M70's. Not sure if they did that in the early 850's but they most likely did.

Pretty sure you're right. One ecu running each bank of cylinders.

Wow..amazing! Never knew BMW made a v16! They were smart to not put it into production, no trunkspace on a 7 = failure!

Intakes for cool are nasty looking and out of place on a 7, although it's understood the car was just a test bed for what they could do.

Pretty close... I'm 22L/100 in the city and 16/100 highway... I get a low fuel warning when I hit a quarter tank. The V10 is worth it though.
