Don't even bother, those things aren't accurate at all. Corner-weighted or nothing.

For reference my manual transmission 135i (N54) with no nav, manual seats, moonroof & heated seats came in at 3350lbs & my DCT E90 M3 (fully loaded) came in at 3650lbs

135i N54 (manual) -> 3350lbs
M2 Performance Edition (manual) -> 3400lbs
E90 M3 (DCT) -> 3650lbs
My 6mt weighed in at ~3390 with the gas light on, so that's probably pretty close.

I'm down to 3260 now

Ah, you have your dinan front end links maxed out for shortness as well. Someone really should make shorter front endlinks for our cars.

My one currently is about 1.450 kgs, full tank, scaled on corner weight scale, when I bought the car, I did not expect to mod it so far, I'd rather bought the MT instead of DKG. But I still have some to remove from inside....

- anti roll bars Dinan
- SPL suspension parts front and rear
- Lexan side & rear

Grip level increased a lot
Can you please show where on the front of the car you are pulling air from for the brake cooling? Is it the space next to oil cooler and aux radiator? Did it require extensive modifications to the inlet area, the area behind the bumper and in the wheel arches? Thanks!

Edit: just saw that you removed the coolers to make room for the brake ducts. I guess these locationS would not be possible for brake ducts without first removing.

See pics enclosed, I removed both coolers. The inlet as it is now is provisional. It will be modified to a custom inlet for a hose with less diameter.
It works very well, you can see on the temperature strip and on the brakes as well, they did not exceed 600 celsion on Red Bull Ring, which is a very brake demanding track.

2022 season is ending, I would like to share the status of my mods, which lasted longer than initially scheduled.

Car now moves torward GT4, painting makes it fun as well.

Inside some cosmetics still to be done, suspension is final KW3 competion (based on M4 GT4), engine still not as per my expectations (heat issues) and will most probably an engine swatch to S55
