He decided on installing a turbocharged 3.0 L N55B30 inline-six taken from a 2015 BMW M135i. A factory version of this motor makes 315-325 hp (235-240 kW) and 332 lb-ft (450 Nm) of torque. Jake&#8217;s engine is mostly stock with a modified oil pan and a SCS Delta ECU. Power is transferred to the rear wheels through a BMW M2 transmission and BMW M3 Evo subframe and limited-slip differential. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"
