Michael. 2313 Report post Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Wow sign me up for a test drive! Sound as good as I imagine it would be considering the engine, trans, car weight and balance etc, how could it go wrong! Especially cool as it looks like a nice, yet unsuspecting mums car, a sleeper is always a fun toy.

zero 1162 Report post Posted June 14, 2018 What are the estimates for weight, and for hp? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELLBM 1560 Report post Posted June 14, 2018 5 hours ago, zero said: What are the estimates for weight, and for hp? 118 - 1235 kg unladen. N46 & Trans 179kg M3 - 1600 kg unladen. S65 & DCT 243 kg Overall aprox. 200kg lighter With tune and cat delete/lightweight exhaust should be aprox. 440hp Next dyno day will give us some figures. Sidenote: DCT will give at least a car length gain on a Manual with each gear change. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
