Just trying to start ahead and taking in all of the info and planning before i get it like i did with the M3. Had the M3 for 6-7months and did all of the work in 2 months, kind of bored of it already and its not worth rebuilding the motor for the supercharger setup, already a stage 3 pulling 530 hp, and is about dead even with a 996tt X50 stock. Anyway good luck with your car, any recomendations or pointers? Im looking for basically a race setup exhaust, which would be best. Muffler then straight pipes back? Thanks Martin
Hmm

Seriously I did it with just a chip and a K&N filter! That Beemer should be able to hit 11s then if it can keep up with an X50! I'm guessing it's just hard to launch with that much power. I'd say all you really need is DR's on your rear wheels and that should get you there!

You have to hand it to James and Robert though- they stuck their chins out...Honestly the really good race woulda been James' white GT2... His car spooled up so frickin' fast!

Check out e46fanatics, they have a run with my car but about 200lbs+ heavier against a 996tt, M3 starts pulling easily but still, that's a stock damm Porsche Turbo, with the amount of money i put in the M3 i could have a 10 sec turbo with ease, but it is unique and impressive with my M3 to be as fast as it is, thats why i love it but my friend is buying it from me, so i will get to see it/drive it whenever i want.
Anyway what exhaust setup do you recommend, remember im doing almost exactly what you did. Getting the cage already, BBS LM's, Fikse's, BBS Magnesiums or some crazy track wheel and so on, making it into a track car. Like i said any tips, great suspension setups and so on would be much appreciated. Thanks alot Sharky
