BMW Rallying Forum

Ari, nice video and driving. I have a 318ti with basic mods to use on Targa type events. Would like more power and have looked at a few options for cams etc but for the UK Targa rules we have to keep the standard inlet system. Would you be willing to share the spec of your engine?

Now have 90mm diesel crank 86.5mm pistons high compression, eagle rods 135mm runs Kennelly Cams(NZ), great broad power now,1mm oversize inlet valves s54 ITBs Link G4 ecu hand made extractors
you will notice we have got a miss in video, faulty crank sensor
Hope this is helpful

Lightweight flywheel and shorter ratio diff really wake them up, after market computer lets you rev alot higher our 1839cc engine would rev to 8800rpm on factory hydraulic tappets .We only recently got a descent gearbox with good ratios (with a 5.0 diff you dont use first gear in standard gearbox) has transformed the car

Thanks Ari, I have 5.0 diff fitted but still on std gearbox. That is some revs! I recently sold my E36 M3 coupe rally car and the biggest improvement I made to that was to fit a 6 speed sequential, transformed car.
