So absolutely well chuffed. Managed a good 45 min blat this morning to make sure car was running fine before the 2 hour treck to Donny on Friday.
New Mishimoto Rad and Electric Fan with probe really does help maintain and keep the temperature down.
In traffic it sits maximum a couple of mm off centre to the left but when driving sits just above quarter.
Previous set up was OEM rad and electric fan and makes this seem mickey mouse considering mine used to overheat in traffic after a few min when hot and have to have heaters on.
Supersprint lightweight race sounds just as good as I remember, great around town and combined with airbox sounds lovely pushing on. Saved another 5kg probably. So running supersprint cats and OEM centre section to save a few db.
Finally the knocking of the rear RS29's has stopped, put new anti rattle clips in and mintex Anti squeal 3M pads. Managed to get heat into the pads and thank the lord they do not knock anymore.
Car feels so much smoother through the gears and will be good to see what the straight line speed is like on track as always short shifted on track days, maybe the car was running rough before and didn't feel right when ringing its neck out and just got used to it. The car has never felt fast in a straight line till now.
Will be nice to see what its like compared to the other M3's at Donny as Ive based my build on this car being able to handle better than the CSL on Intrax and AP's.
