Very good gains! (i think some of the DTM cars used it)

I just thought of something which will restrict the M42 guys! the throttle possition sensor will not fit onto the side of the TB bcause of the inlet manifold, so you will have to get a E36 inlet.

Its not a Retro job, its a connect you laptop and configure in real time on the rollers.
