I've tuned a turbo S2000 with a GT30R on an otherwise stock motor and it was really fast even at 10psi.
      This... Last night Pang went 10.8 @ 137MPH with over 700whp on a bone stock motor without studs or gasket (Head has never been off the car).

                  I hope to make it out on the 5th! I'm signing in to the new base on monday, and they usually give you "house hunting" days, so I should have friday free.

                  Bimmerworld has a low temp thermostat that I think i'd like to oder. I need to tap the coolant system somewhere for a thermocouple. Last track day the engine oil was reaching 125c, so i'd like to know what is going on with the coolant temps!

                  But most importantly, I hope the car survived the trip in the back of a budget truck with boxes stacked up all around it! I hope it didn't get any damage with random crap falling on it.

                    Hope so! Yours is the euro 3.0 right?

                    I rode in Roland's M5 tonight...and oh my god do I want an S38 powered vehicle. Pulls so much harder than my M3. Perfect DD would be an E34 M5. Problem is that by the time I can afford one, the decision is between an M5 or S54 swapping the M3. :drink:

                                I would be too. Pretty sure I still have an F117 model around here somewhere.
