Oh, and 420 HP is not "far more" than an F8x, which is proven to be underrated. Good luck with that.
Thanks - appreciate the luck. Maybe I wasn't clear that there are other "add-on's" making this car comparable to the M3 - including brakes, suspension, air intakes, exhaust, carbon fiber components, plus the tune, making up for the all wheel drive difference. No, I'm not so delusional to think it would out-run an F8x., but to give it a good all-wheel drive competitor off the line, and on the track. Remember, it's not always what you drive, but how it's driven that counts.

Yes, it would be easier to buy and M3 or M4, but project cars are fun, and they don't make all wheel drive M3's or M4's - yet.

BTY - I was referring to 420 ft-lbs of torque, when compared to a stock F8x, rated at just over 380. You do understand the difference, don't you?
