Wow, beautiful dry-sump system. Is the tank in your trunk for oil or fuel?

Just got an email from Sebastian Tauber:

"We put an middlesilencer from an BMW E46 M3 in your car, you can see it on the picture.
tüv-time was great. your car is officially proofed. ;-) and ready for the nuerburgring.
the tüv-man was very exited, and left us with an big smile on his face.
I get the documents on Wednesday."

Not bad

Now there are only some small jobs left and some cleaning.

Here are some pics:

Nuts!!! I can't wait to see the vid of this when it's all done. The vid of your M5 at full chat with the tubi was crazy. I played it at least 10 times straight with the Sound turned all the way up.

A week until I pick up the car & head for the Ring...... can´t wait!!!

Here are some pics from when they were test fitting the new front bumper -
hope that I will not have to use that tow hook.....




The new bumper has less airflow to the oil cooler and radiator for the
cooled intake. However, this should be enough - from what I have read the
openings have to be at least 25% of the frontal area of the cooler:

Where do i get those weld in strut braces? I need those in my life.

These are standard on the E30 cabrio so they should not be hard to find.

We're not worthy!! :D



Have you weighed the CF parts to calculate the total weight difference?

Also, I havn't read 100% of the thread...but have you weighed the car with the current setup?

I can't imagine how much fun that car must be!

The car weighed 1300kg with a full tank of gas before I sent it to Germany.

The guys at Tauber are guessing I´m going to loose 50kg up front with
all the CF and dry sump (which will add some weight in the back).

that needs a real CF box... everything else is so baller - it needs the big box

What big cf box are you referring to??

Being the CF/Weave nut I am, More info on the Bumper mounts?

The mounts were included with the front bumper from
