First time I've seen it written about or discussed in a national automotive publication.Never heard it discussed on any of the X6 forums I follow (X6 World,xBimmers,German Car Zone,bimmerfest) or any of the Auto Webpages.....World Car Fans,Jalopnik,Auto Spies,Edumunds Inside Line,BimmerBlogger.....etc. PalBay

That's because it has been discussed in the 3 series forum for quite some time. The twin turbo I6 in the X6 XDrive35i is the same engine that powers the 135i, 335i, and 535i. There has been much speculation that the true output for the (I think N54) is around 330 bhp rather than the 300 bhp advertised.
