Notrix it has been remapped by HBM Laboratories and beside the mentioned modifications everything else is stock...

WOW - engine OK (ish) but how is the gearbox handling that torque - V impressive if stock

Why was she in the garage for 14m ?

[albish]

keyap, from what I and my father red the stock internals can handle up to 280hp/360nm so it's all well till now... but im planning on LSD soon (maybe)...

[Broda]

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide?

[albish]

Ifcrule, the previous owner had some 'issues' (really long story) after two months of use, and the insurance company had to keep her for 14 months... i guess she was just waiting for the real owner

Pretty impressive. In addition to the DS3 am also running a modded 1 series which has a 7 speed DCT. Clutch slips from 4th to 7th however, its a 2011 model so thankfully, as the ECUs been cracked, it can be flashed to resolve.

Not sure if this is possible or even advisable on a DS3 but the BMW runs 40% bioethanol (only in summer as no traction in winter) which does wonders for the octane and can be purchased at only marginally more than petrol. It's a bit like making your own E85 fuel :cool: Not sure what the neighbours think though when they see me putting this in. Part of the modding on the BMW was with the fuelling to accomodate this however, I believe they can run 20% with no mod.

My 135 runs at 40% E85 currently, more than that is not worth the expenses of additional mods. My DS3R was 100% E85.

Sorry to hijack the thread but would love to hear more about both of these. What were your 135 mods and did the DS3R have any other mods? What were the performance gains on the DS3R?

My DS3R was HEAVILY Modded. There's a thread about it "Ragnarok's something"

OK - thanks.

The 135i - JB4 by any chance?

[Ragnarok]

OK - thanks.

And I am more than happy to discuss both cars but as you notified let's not hijack this thread. My BMW has also an own thread here.
Yes it is JB4,though no backend flash yet, not LPFP and/or HPFP upgrade. Might do LPFP and backen flash at some point, but HPFP is way too expensive related to non existent gains.
