I thought about this
But either way, when you're pushing that much power 500-600whp an extra 400lbs is the least of your worries lol. Hell, if anything it should help with traction In any case, who cares when you're doing uber speeds top down smoking coupes like its nothing lol |

If anything Unbolt the top put it aside go to drag strip and it will literally be the lightest 335i in the world... lol unrealistic that id remove my top tho
Still debating RB's VS Stock.. I was going for vargas but the delay is killing me i know they are coming out with AMAZING stage 2's but my car has been out of commission for 3 months. cant wait any longer. I might be in for the Stage 3's in the future! My baby |

I'd wait for the stage III's considering winter is coming.
At least that's what works for me, not sure if you have heat all year long. |

Yea, but if the twins stage 3 make more than the single than it would be worth it no?
I like having twins, I find it more fun to say I have a "twin turbo" car haha. |

If you Are even thinking about singles or stage 3 then it would be wise to also be ready to beef up the tranny also. I am just saying at those levels tranny upgrade should be also considered without a doubt. I am pushing meth and nitrous and I am scared shit that my tranny will take a dump even though I run my car rather conservatively at 16 psi max on meth and nitrous

a local member had a vert with either an asr or some other turbo upgrade. wasnt rb.
he blew his engine up spraying NOS at every chance he could get to show off.. but he was fast even without NOS. added weight of vert and 2 12"woofers adding weight did help him launch better
