stock gears? Why is that, and why won't you s/c a m3 again. It would be much appreciated from hearing someone that have done it and actually not suggesting it. Please shed some light on this..

Well at the time i did this which was a while ago, it was a gen 2 kit but still not as good as the stg 3-4 or w/e now, its natural progression.

I had NO TRACTION, stalling issues with lwfw and clutch, which was resolved MUCH later with software, it was very moody, sometimes fast sometimes not, fuel leak, oil leak, torn belts and so on..

Now like i said this was what happened with mine, and several other people had issues too, but things have changed once again with all of the newer stuff.

I had no traction, with gears the gearing was so short boost couldnt build up all of the way until in higher gears, traction was useless in anything but upper 3rd gear on, with stock gearing 1st and 2nd were useless and i had 285's on the rear with suspension softened a bit!

Overall it was an experience, because i know half the things i experience wouldnt happen with a newer kit, i still had other things that had nothing to do with it i didnt like, traction being #1!
