ZM Coupe mods

[M400DPC]

Are there any mods that truly enhance the performance of a Z M keeping it naturally aspirated, i.e. is there a proven combo of mods that deliver a noticeable improvement in acceleration etc...? Anyone here had any done?

Cheers

De-Vanos it, Schrick it, Alfa-N it for £5k...

or

...loose weight. The Z4MC is a portly beast at 1460kg (mine on a weigh bridge). Get that down to 1250 and give the GT3s a fright...

Yep. Should see around 350BHp - real - the S50 never made the 321 reported...

200kg out of a Z4MC - ditch the seats - 50kg, air bags, door trim, middle console and all the plastic in the middle of the car, door side impact protection, change roof to carbon fibre, swap exhaust for a light weight one, stereo + sat nav, smaller battery, change brake calipers for 4-pots made of ali, lighter wheels, wheel arch lining, front and rear bumper bars, seat belts inertia mechanisms, headlining - it all adds up to a lot

Have any users here done some serious modification to the performance of their Z3M's?

What is meant by de-vanos'ing?

Ive been quoted for an ecu remap, shrick cams, carbon airbox and exhaust as the mods to carry out for significant performance gains. Will de-vanos'ing the car make it quicker?

Thanks
