much better, i like handling and to be closer to the ground, so coils for me instead of springs only

you are completely right, i had to source the brackets from a company and calipers are identical for M5 f90, m3/m4 G80/G82, X5m/X6m just X5m/x6m comes with plug and play brackets from factory. i will add some pics once i will take the wheel off there is a huge impact on brakes with these calipers

i hope lowering the car will make it less vulnerable

next week we start to make adjustments and we will know

i will try not to launch it at all

I think usually the max we can get this engine is around the 700/750whp mark without upgrading turbos, as I've seen on mutliple builds and dynos.

The thing with launch control is it only activates once it hits like low+/mid rpms with turbos kicking in, so maybe a brake/gas take off without activating launch control. Kinda sucks, hope some company makes something, all these companies are so behind in launching products...

But that 0 to whatever is the thing that gets that stomach dropping feeling!

If we can do 2nd gear launch like the Supras I believe it will reduce the load and will be having a better times.

Very nice ! Love the Red.

I think we can, other day I shifted to second gear and launch control activated.

I didnt send it but I think I will try tomorrow and see the result if the rain stops by me.

There's an m3 that cracked 800+ on a dyno...it also ran a 9.7. X3m running 10.2 is probably 800whp also

I follow the guy running the 10.2 and his X3M is stock turbo with a Visconti E tune so likely closer to 700whp. He had all the seats pulled for that run

[goldfz8]

Idk his ig claims 800whp...vis tuned the 800hp m3 and its also e70 tune. I doubt 700 with 200lbs of seats gets you low 10s

700whp is roughly 800HP which is what he claims.

I think you'd be surprised how much the stock seats weigh (rears and passenger). I plan to pull them in the near future and weigh them but they certainly aren't light.

I will agree with you, those in the rear are heavy, we had to take those out for low pressure pump. Most likely for the next race i will have those out

Can't wait to see the results!

Sick build! Thanks for sharing. The idea of a X3/5/7 with this kinda power is appealing.

Would love to know what 100-200kph time or quarter mile trap speed one of these supports at this power level.

[whoismorggan]

Can't wait for the dyno video!

[PARTS@STBMW]

This is sick! 👀

Needs rolling launch (anti-lag) That's the fun shit😉

After upgrading to Pures it put down 800whp

Ahh ok. I only knew it was on stock turbos the last I checked it so that would make more sense. That's awesome power
