BMW-trackday BTCF Alastaro - E87 120d

[@alexsteinberg661]

Is it an M47 or N47? How does the engine handle the track days, any problems? I have myself a 2005 120d remapped as well and currently am upgrading the suspension, with Eibach Pro Kit and Bilstein B4S already, but thinking of installing M3 control arms as well.

It's M47. Engine can handle trackdays but intake temps rise quite fast with stock intercooler, with big intercooler it's better and more safe to run at track, next is oil temps that are the issue with high boost driving, i've seen oil filter caps with oil cooling lines that sort that issue. Those M3 control arms really help front end to handle at track, if i remember correctly also rear control arms can be replaced with M3 parts.

@@JaxKiBez OK, thanks for the info!

Are you really at 140+ km/h going into those corners!? Good job though 😉

[@JaxKiBez]

Before second corner GPS is lagging behind few seconds, but i'm using 10hz GPS so it's quite accurate elsewhere. :)

What mods have you got? 👍

[@JaxKiBez]

Powerwise basically only ECU tune, removed rear silencer and DPF. Only suspension mod is some chinese coilover kit + TRW E92 M3 front lower control arms. So little more camber at front and more power. After this trackday i upgraded brake pads to Black Diamond Predators and drilled front strut towers to gain even more front camber.
