Just to throw another wrench in the spokes. Based off a quick calculation I think a "legal" Spec E30 325 could put 170-175hp to the wheels with a crate motor by reducing drag in the driveline.[/quote]

:huh: And how would reduce drag in the driveline legally. Sound like we need to open up Rob’s gear box and look REM polished internals made from titanium billets;)[/quote]

But since there will be now a baseline you can also go the other way and increase drag if your motor makes too much power. Run a 60 weight oil if you’re worried your "stock" motor is going to make too much power :), should help protection too.
