I have done an average of about 8 weekends at COTA per year, some of which have had both cars double tracked by friends and family. The double tracked days were 4-8 sessions a day both days. I’m running consistent 2:28’s due to traffic but both cars are sub 2:25 capable (optimal times). Neither here nor there to be honest. I was merely pointing out that, with proper care and some due diligence on the cleaning front that good dampers can have decent rebuild intervals for the average enthusiast.

Engine mods made me laugh, it was easier to tell him that you had 3-4hp more than stock, he would have been more angry

I like it when guys with NA tell about engine mods! There is a case of an owner who spend $10k in a Renault 2.0 NA and the car measured 3whp less than stock power on dyno. His face must have been a drama Last edited by Track/S; 02-28-2024 at 05:18 PM.. |

My s54 mods netted 35 whp peak on the same dyno. I bet most of it came from getting rid of the stock cats. Unfortunately, I was an early adopter to the e46/s54, several years before cams, CSL plenum/intake + Alpha-N tuning. When I started working with BW, James still answered the phone and called post-purchase to check on whether you were a satisfied customer. |
