Don´t know - will have to ask the mapper about it.If he is good enough for McLaren F1, Gpower/Infinitas & many other top level companies,
he is good enough for me
What I will however have to do is speak with the guy who sold me the engine
and said it had been built to handle FI which is not the case at all.
Just got back from the Ring.
The car is now running after the engine rebuild. Did 16 laps without
problems - here is one of them:
http://www.rngtoy.com/thordur/almennt/Eurotour2008...
I am not pushing the car 100% yet but still did 8:24 BTG even though
there was some construction work.
The car is working well, and I´m increasing the load on the engine
gradually while monitoring it closely. A/F is 11.9X at wot, water temp
never goes above 3/4ths, oil temp goes to 115°c.
So far everything looks good - fingers crossed.
I am not sure about the power level - still need to take it to a dyno.
I did however see a 997 GT2 enter the track before me and I decided to
see how the M3 would do against it
I was on his tail through Hatzenbach and then we floored it through Flugplatz
and were break even.
He let me through at Foxhole because it was getting very wet. Later in the
lap it dried up again and we started playing again. I couild not shake him
off but he could not overtake me either.
Here is a video from this lap:

I enjoyed the vid, it looks quick and sounds great
im pleased for you nice one
i look forward to reading about your next trip
Here is a pic from my last trip:
... and some more videos
First there is a 8:25 lap, reving some more than in the lap I already posted,
lots of traffic (pcars in the way ) and construction again:
http://www.rngtoy.com/thordur/almennt/Eurotour2008...
Second one is where I´m minding my own business - warming up the car when some
E190's & a Lotus blast by.... then I just realized the car was up to temp and some
serious suprising was in order
http://www.rngtoy.com/thordur/almennt/Eurotour2008...
The third is when I am on the tail of a new E92 M3 driven by some japanese
guys (a lot of those that weekend!):
http://www.rngtoy.com/thordur/almennt/Eurotour2008...
Finally a clip in torrential rain - 500hp, rwd and semislicks

PS. Heel'n toe not yet perfected.....
