The BMW M12/13 turbo was a 1,499.8 cc four-cylinder turbocharged Formula One engine, based on the standard M10 engine introduced in 1961, that powered the F1 cars of Brabham, Arrows and Benetton. Nelson Piquet won the 1983 Formula One Drivers Championship in a Brabham powered by it, the first Drivers Championship won with a turbocharged engine. It also powered the BMW GTP, and in 2.0 litre naturally aspirated form the successful March Engineering Formula Two cars. As the M12/7 the design had become one of the most successful in racing since the late 1960s, and in the German touring car series a 1,400 cc variant was turbocharged by Paul Rosche. Brabham used it in selected races in 1982, producing about 850 bhp in qualifying trim in 1983 and around 1,100 hp by 1985, and the 1986 M12/13/1 was claimed to reach 1,400 hp at 11,000 rpm.
