z4m supercharged.... time for stage 2... 500+bhp

[Beedub]

ok guys so shes been amazing, now im wanting alittle more power....
VT1 has netted me 460bhp, ive now ordered the vt-2 500 kit, this will net me around 500-515bhp.....
i look forward to bring you all along for the journey and will update you with pics

The upgrade pack utilises all the vt1 parts and adds quite a few upgraded cooling parts ect ect.

Even cooler is ill now have a hand held tuning device, this will allow me to data log, map swtich, low/high octane maps, i will also be to load things like a valet map, so the car wont rev past 2k.

i will update this thread when the parts arrive, the car will be going back to simpson motorsport for the upgrade and engine work :-)

Got bored of 460bhp did you?

Sounds like this'll be great - hand-held tuning is very trick indeed too. Look forward to the updates.

amazingly ive adapted to the power so easily, have been driving for the last 10 trackdays with the t/c off and really enjoying the torque and sliding the vehicle around.....

what i like more than anythink with the upgrade kit is the cooling part upgrades as the new power increase only adds 2psi, so 7spi in total......

Sorry for the caps there, that is awesome

ive used the car at curborough sprint course about 20+ times, the porsche track at silverstone/silverstone long ,brunters on a private function,
am currently booked onto vmax day @ brunters, and silverstone, want to do donny also, i will probably do curborough another 6+ times this year, i want to book more but my first son is due within 2 months, hence my reluctance to committ to to many days later in the year.

The car maybe be minty mint but it gets used properly.......
