why is it that the 2.5i has more horses than the 2.7

The 2.7e (or ETA) is an economy engine. It only redlines at about 4,500rpm so it's well down on power to the 2.5, but up on torque from memory. If you want to know everything and anything about the ETA's then I suggest you send a Private Mail to "jrt67ss350", while "epj3" will tell you anything you need to know about the 325i's!

Hope that helps.
