E46 M3 & CSL Braking Upgrades
by Thorney Motorsport - Thu, 01 Jan 2009 08:00
It's somewhat
traditional now for BMW to install inadequate brakes on their M3's.
It's a tradition that started with the E36, and has been carried on to
the E92! If you take a standard brake setup to the track, they will
cook within 2 laps.

E46 M3 & CSL Performance Upgrades

The CSL is a completely different car to the M3, not only does it have a completely different engine management system, different induction, different cams, head work but it also has a very different power delivery. We specialise in the E46 M3 (we run 4 in the CSL Cup) have an in depth knowledge of them and how they're put together. We've spent a lot of time developing perfect power upgrades.

E46 M3 CSL Handling & Suspension Upgrades
by Thorney Motorsport - Thu, 01 Jan 2009 01:00
Vehicles arrive from the factory with fairly benign settings. The manufacturers don't want hundreds of people throwing themselves into hedgerows at every corner. This does mean that handling is compromised. With standard suspension we are obviously limited by what we can do, but we can certainly extract the some more fun from the chassis.

As founders of the CSL Cup series we are particularly experienced on the building of E46 M3 race cars. We run our won 4 car race team in the series and as such have an intricate knowledge on the preparation and running of these cars. CSL Cup can be built for as low as £25k (including donor car) or up to £60k for our top spec cars. For information on the CSL Cup race series see their website – www.cslcup.co.uk

E46 M3 Engine & Performance
by Thorney Motorsport - Thu, 01 Jan 2009 08:00
Technically advanced and as such not
a car to be modified without a good background of skill. There is a
lot of internet talk about 30bhp gains with quick remaps... nonsense!
It can't happen. To get those kind of gains full exhaust systems are
needed, however a simple ECU remap can still give a fantastic
increase in throttle response and significant (I.E. you can actually
feel them) power increase over stock.
