That car’s fast but unfortunately that’s one of the horror stories in BMW tuning, this turkish guy Mert, who runs that company da-motorsport got his start ripping off customers and essentially only building his car…and even when it was built he never showed a dyno, only _CLAIMED_ 1000whp, but you can clearly see the car in these vids is 600whp at best, which is nothing to scoff at but the car blew up within a year.

HERE is a well sorted 1000whp E36:

you can buy michelins that are rated to 186+ anything with a speed rating of Y or greater… like 255/40/18ZR with a load rating of Y92 for instance… is a Z rated compound, with a Y speed rating, and 92 is the load rating.
