They also use a recalibrated Drexler LSD with different geometry and reworked locking clutches. They don't like how hard the OE drexler diff locks up, so they massage it to work a little bit more smoothly in it's lock up action.

Even with all the power this M235i car had... the DTC light barely came on/flashed. They had made one hell of a great chassis here. Just as with a traditional ///M car... the car is more than a sum of its parts. This car worked as one unit. Every part(component) complemented each other and worked in harmony. You can't ask for anything more. And the level of craftsmanship of this car was on par with the BMW factory. It wasn't your typical "tuner" car.
Wow, that is awesome. Thanks for the info!
