well if you guys are watching it looks like im going to be able to get us "I" owners close to 275 HP with just the tune and intake manifold,
other ways to get closer may be: exhaust Air induction system and a nice 4:10 rear gear should give you that feeling of a few HP.... who knows maye the 300HP isnt that imposable.... no forced induction though are engines cant take the abuse. or at least not recomended. |

totaly Huz! plus the the fact that the I and SI has the lighter mag engine over the front wheels are turn in is better out of the box than the M with the heavier cast iron block. so a tuned SI Z4 is not that much slower than the M, add the 4:10 rear and lighten up a few things and the gap gets even closer....  not discounting the M at all just saying the I or SI isnt a slouch either, not to mention the car does look like it would should a v8 or v10 as the hood is sooooo long. hmmmmmmm speaking of which now im convinced my next project is to shoe horn the V10 in my car lol..... already found one for 4500 bucks with trans.... need to get the rear diff and things start looking possable! |

So the difference in between "I" and "SI" model is not much that much?...but if you drag race between both version obviously "SI" will be quicker? but do you guys think the 40 horses is not big difference in between both models?
