An Engine for All Seasons: BMW’s N55
Chances are, if you’ve been near a BMW dealership in the past few years, you’ve come across a car powered by the N55. That’s manufacturing code for what BMW calls their TwinPower Turbo inline six cylinder engine. That’s BMW-speak for a 3.0 liter engine with a single twin-scroll […]
