2)I think the LSD is over-rated IMHO, I've heard differing opinions..some veteran track junkies say don't bother, while others say it's a must. Useful for power-sliding. If you run big tires in the rear like me, the most the inside tire will do is squeal a bit around a corner. (The stock RFTs are another story)
A new BMW Performance kit will be available shortly will help with any cooling issues and add about 30 horses and torque..
