you've got a 3" exhaust at the moment. i hope you have a turbo with a 4" outlet for that hx40 downpipe to mate to.....

There's nothing wrong with having a 4" DP if you don't have a 4" turbo. IMO.

I've argued this in the past.

Why not make it 4" as soon as possible? Thats my theory.

You can put it on now, But you'll no doubt peg your boost gauge and possibly destroy some other stuff

Just a small grind on the stocker on the 93, made the clutch slip like its full of butter. And it was fine before we ground it....Fuel pin upgrade= lots more torque/hp

I like my M2 so much I'm considering buying an M5 for play...
Had an 'Ol Smokey that I cut the ramp deeper on and it came in waaayyy to soon. The M2 comes in lots slower due to the higher profile at the bottom.
When it does come in the turbo is spinning good and the 6x.016's are ready with plenty of fuel. From ~ 1/2 throttle to WOT it feels like a different engine.

Now if I just had a triple clutch TC to hold all the new power.
Santa forgot me last year, maybe --- Birthday coming up in a couple months

i'm going with an m3 pin. it should make a huge difference in the way this thing feels. the 366 spring made a really big difference and makes this thing really fun to drive. i haven't touched my fuel screw at all and i can build about 25psi. i'm curious as to how much the m3 will increase boost with the extra fuel it'll throw in the mix. i'm anxious

you will probally gain about 5+ psi of boost.

Been waiting for a 'clear' day to get some pics of the M2 in action....
Remember the pics are made with my heavy ( ~ 35lbs compressed ) afc spring so there's not as much smoke as I'd get with the stock spring which compresses at ~ 18 - 20 lbs....

1st pic is right after cranking - I missed the puff of black smoke that came out. If you look close you can see the haze...

2nd pic is in motion on a side street heading toward the main street, lite throttle and ~ 25 mph. Just slightly more haze than at idle. This is normal for town driving.

3rd pic is hiway. Just took a fork and the car in front of me decided to slow down to 50mph. As soon as I saw clear road in front of me I floored it and then reached over to the computer to catch this. I was up to ~ 60 and rapidly accelerating. I backed off at when I saw 75 mph and still pulling strong. I hit ~ 35 psi here.

Pulled the fuel pin when I got home and the track was just at the flat of the pin.
