Imagine you owned a BMW M2 and the car’s abilities just doesn’t match up with your
expectations. Maybe you just need
to meet the fine folks over at Dähler Design & Technik GmbH. Instead of simply tuning the M2’s N55 3.0-liter
inline six engine, Dahler is actually offering to take out the engine entirely
and swap with the M4’s own S55 turbo six engine and then tuning the new engine
to produce 531 horsepower and 538 pound-feet of torque with a top speed of 199
mph.
Exterior modifications on the BMW M2 are limited to
a few aero bits and a new set of wheels. A black-trimmed bumper and side vents
are the standard add-ons, but Dahler is also offering a front lip spoiler, a
new rear wing, and a set of 20- or 21-inch staggered wheels as added options.
The program comes with interior upgrades, but Dahler
didn’t disclose the specifics of what those upgrades are. The tuner only said
that it can dress up the cabin depending on the request of a particular
customer.
Dahlia’s engine upgrades for the BMW M2 covers
plenty of detail, in part because the tuner is offering a variety of programs
for the compact performance coupe. First, there’s the N55 Competition Line,
which is made up of three different stages, each with a specific increase in
output.
