Tracking the R55 JCW
Just got a R55 JCW.
Came from a two R56 JCW. tracked one of them with suspension and some mods.
All N18 engines!
Just wondering what people have been doing to their R55 and which part is the best bang for the buck to add for track.
I know the basic, coilovers, sways, etc. just wondering if that made a huge difference since R55 handling is different from R56.
Thanks.
