The GT is 295BHP from the factory - The engone mods were done for homologation purposes I believe and are as follows:
264 degree Cams,
Double Tandem Duocentric oil pumps,
Upgraded DME/VANOS software,
Shortened intake-pipes
BMW Motorsport GT Oil Pan.
The guy at www.cavallino.co.uk I spoke to has one he races and advised a chip change, as this should yeild 320BHP and a nicer torque curve.

I was given a very hard time by one of these last track day (well actually he went past me)
These have the front aerofoils that you can slide out I think ???
I think I really should track it at least once - looking at the nurburgring lap times it has done it in 8.22 (with a pretty hot driver I assume!!) so it certainly should be OK with me behind the wheel!!
I am flying to Belfast on Saturday morning and bringing it back on the ferry - I am a little concerned about the adjustable splitter being removed when I get it on the ferry - anyone ever tried getting a low car onto a ferry??
My Alpina spoilered E36 was quite low, it was the early snow plow style front spoiler and getting on the ferry to le man one year it caught on the on ramp and popped out one of the front fogs 
luckily a P&O bod spotted it and tannoyed me to sort it out and even payed for the repairs 
I also had a strip of carbon fibre glued to the underside as it grounded out reversing of my drive.

Most importantly, is your PH name now accurate again!?
Assuming it is more reliable than my TVR then I will be under my own steam!!
Not quite - 17s on this and I am reluctant to change them to be honest...
Never say never tho!
