Unless you have a 12 cclinder engine and electronics just sitting around, the cost of upgrading a car of limited value to this engine is not warranted for most.

Installing a 745 system, or just sensible engine upgrades can duplicate the 245hp of the B9 Alpina. I found this to be quite adequate with a 5 spd.

Has anyone done this or tried this?
