Hi to all.

I was wondering if anyone could advise me how to best go about tunning my 86 325i for sprint races. It's been fully stripped and now has omp rolecage, 1b yokohoma tyres, full spax upgrade on the springs and dampers which are ajustable, ajustable role bar and an fia spec bucket seat with a four point harness. It's also got strutt bracess front and rear.
the engine was re-built last year but, its still stock apart from a bolt on type air filtter. What can I do to take it up to 200hp? other than forced asperation. And is it possible to fit a lsd from a doner bimmer to improve the handling even more??

personally i would just get time in the car on a track and not spend the money on go faster bits. as sprints are quite short, time in the car at an event is minimal thus the more time you spend on a track day for example, means you are better prepared when you get to the event...

also, in a modified 2000cc plus car, you are up against some very quick machinery, i know i am the same and want to enter every event i enter but...
