Will the new e92 block have issues with FI??
I was thinking that the new e92 block is going to face some problems with forced induction. Now I'm no expert but aluminium blocks tend to get very hot quickly and the 4.0 V8 block in this thing will generate even more heat comepared to hondas...
so how is anyone supppose have enough room in the engine bay to fit a big enough cooling system for this badboy???
**experts please chime in**

I don't see any problem boosting this motor, the biggest problem would be fitting in the turbochargers, or supercharger somewhere in the engine bay, but BMW's do have very large engine bays. As for heat an upgraded aluminum radiator for this model with double the core size, and maybe an oil cooler should solve this problem.
Believe me, someone, or company will have a turbo kit for this engine very soon.....

We're talking about BMW so I'm sure they will find a way to make it all efficient, reliable, and expensive.
Cool pics eitherway.

I'd actually think about rear-mounted turbo(s). It already has 4 resonators, so that muffler shouldn't be missed in terms of noise. It should also have the torque to make up for any bit of lag you'd get. Think of the turbine sound you'd get from something like twin GT30R's... 
I'd be worried more about all that convoluted crap they've stuffed everywhere. Every item seems to do 4x more tasks than on a regular motor. I mean just look at the crank and cam shafts...
