Car looks awesome! I had an 09 that I sold a few years back for an e46m3. Had some issues with brakes on the few track days I did. Curious how reliable these cars are on track with proper mods. Oil cooler, upgraded brakes and u cut up the front to keep temps down?

Mechanically the car is a beast. Yes, oil cooling on these cars suck, and it obviously gets worse with a supercharger. I cut up the bumper for more flow directly to the 34 row oil cooler. I'm including the second cooler, because I was planning on daisy chaining them for extra cooling, but it did a great job as is. Only got to the 280-290 range when I would go out on a track session in 90+ degrees where it was above 50% humidity, and only at the end of a session. Hardly the normal condition for most HPDE's around here.
Brakes have been amazing on it. Running XP10 F and XP8 in the rears. Coupled with the Z1 2-piece rotors, and it was as solid as you could get.
