In order for the S65 engine to make maximum power at close to 8400 RPM's continuous ignition monitoring is required more than what traditional acoustic knock sensors can provide. The S65 engine uses an ionic current monitoring system derived from the S85 V10 which actively and continuously monitors combustion quality. Unlike the S85 engine which uses an inline control unit for each cylinder bank, the simplified system utilized on the S65 engine has incorporated the system in the individual ignition coils themselves. During ignition cycles, the measurement current is stored in a capacitor integrated in the ignition coil itself, and after ignition, is available at the spark plug electrode. In the S65, the ion current measurement and evaluation is also performed exclusively by the MSS60 DME.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FCP EURO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40941049708736,"sku":"BMW-12137841754","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/1113\/6704\/products\/ScreenShot2021-10-06at1.09.19AM.png?v=1633497011"},{"product_id":"bmw-ignition-service-kit-f80-f82-f83-1","title":"OEM BMW Ignition Service Kit (F80 F82 F83)","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"extended__brandDetails\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReplaces both major components of your S55 powered BMW M3 or BMW M4, features Genuine BMW ignition coils and Genuine BMW ZMR5TPP330 spark plugs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpark plugs and ignition coils are a pretty common overlooked item.
