not really sure what you are asking here

Ok so does the CSI have a different engine?? Because they both have v12's so I doubt that they made two seperate types of V12's for two diff models of basically the same car.
My point is if the engines are the same I cant see how it would cost 40k to modify the cheaper one to be just as good if not better than the CSI. Am I wrong?

Ok thanks for the clarification there sol....
However, if someone is ignorant to a subject that doesn't mean that they're simple-minded. I don't think my questions were dumb. I apologize that you know SOO much more than me about a car. Its not like I was saying I knew all kinds of shit about the cars. So perhaps think about that before you start insulting people.
To continue what I was saying and to add to what Pissedofsol stated. Same engine, different bore, etc etc. I dare say you could modify one of the 850i engines and/or buy a csi engine for a lot less than 40k, so why wouldn't you just do that and drop it into the cheaper car??? Or is that just a ridiculous idea for someone to suggest on this website... wait what website is this?? Oh yeah hondaSWAP. Maybe that is too hard to grasp?

I dare say Hondas are a HELL of a lot cheaper to mod and work on then BMW, and even if you could find all the parts to make a CSi (not just the engine is different) it would cost a fucking grip.

Speaking in relative quantifiable terms, exactly how much is "a fucking grip"?
