Well let's see, the car is made in Austria, so it doesn't really make sense for Toyota to make the parts does it? So why is it odd that they are from BMW who is thousands of miles closer and already has established suppliers in the general region?

I mean I like Apex too but for 2,000$ I think titan 7 has the best wheel.

Hey I like the stinger too!

Oh yea I figured, but Titan7 is my favorite. Love the designs, and they have arguably the best price point of all forged wheels.

I asked the owner of Titan7 if they would be releasing wheels for this car, and he confirmed they will be making a set with the correct fitment.

Especially an ECU that has been cracked already. The incentive to crack BMW ecu's is high as their are many models that use the same ECU.

Well, for reference, I have spent a lot of time driving the M240i. It isn't mine but it is a good friend's. It is smooth, and very fast. It so far is reliable and has had zero issues.

I am actually quite happy. The B58 is a closed deck inline six with a forged bottom end. It is such a tough block that they do not make any changes between it and the diesel. Similarly, this engine is shared between a ton of cars. This means future support and parts availability will be very...

Well we don’t actually know any other performance metrics so it could be even with weight deficits and all.

That is very interesting. Bespoke tires. Hope it’s not like Veyron bespoke. Not willing to pay 20k for tires lol. But I wonder what difference Cup 2’s would make on the lap time.

3.8-3.9. At these times RWD cars start to become limited by traction not power.

Oh it is? I thought the ps4 replaces the super sport?

Hm, I kind of doubt they did it on cup tires or anything. If they were doing laps over and over like they usually do I would assume it would be on the more saleable PS4’s

Well atleast we have an engine that we can tune VERY easily.

Well I have a feeling that BMW is just quoting a faster time. I feel torque would make a greater difference for 0-60 and they have similar amounts.

Ah so if they keep the filter it’s not detuning that’s slowing them down, it’s likely higher back pressure limiting top end efficiency therefore reducing peak horsepower.

Oh by the way, was the run done on like sport cup 2’s or just your run of the mill ps4?

And it was done on some very sticky tires.

No, not really. The VW EA888 and Honda K20C1 both use a headifold and both are engines that are known to make big power.

See my question is what does the O1 look like? I haven’t seen any clear evidence that states or pictures it as having an actual exhaust manifold. Personally, it doesn’t make sense why BMW would design two two heads all for the sake of just having more power in the U.S? Most integrated headifolds...
