Which board?  The 35d can't have more torque across the board, since it drops below the 35i rating at about 4700 rpm, when the 35i is still at its torque peak. That isn't even considering the next 2000 or so rpm after that.
The 35i (in an e60, with a manual transmission) is quite tractable below 1000 rpm. Try blipping the throttle at 600 rpm on the two engines.
The 35i has a turbocharger design that is a generation ahead. I suspect that the 35d will catch up with the next generation product, whether it be the tri-turbo model or another one.
