So on the same vein..this setup worked
Nationals Setup for my TTC car.

1999 BMW M3 Base Class: TTD*
Base Weight (with driver): 3176lbs

+13 Hoosier A6 (I run R6s regionally)
+3 Shocks
+2 Springs
+1 Aftermarket LSD
+1 Intake
+2 Intake Manifold
+1 Power Pulleys/Fan Delete
+2 Cat-back
+4 Wing
+3 Splitter


However, how can I make it faster? After being on track with an e46 m3 with the same power to weight, it seemed that he had MUCH more grip with his 275s than my 245s. Maybe his driving, maybe not. But it raised a few questions. Looked at a few things. My tire to weight ratio is horrible compraed to Miatas, hondas, e46 m3s, corvettes etc. To bring them more in line, a 10-inch wide tire looks like a better option. After looking around, there is a 255/35/18 that is 10" wide (a cheater tire).

So im thinking....put back on stock exhaust that will maybe cost me 2-3whp, and go with those tires +1 for tire size. And then maybe getting rid of my power pulleys and going to aftermarket sway bars.
So my laayout would be this. I am looking for input?

As a plus, this would make me more competitive in GTS2 as I have to restrict horsepower anyway...
