Any suggestions for a hot setup on sway bars (a/k/a roll bars) for a 1998 M-3 will be appreciated. I have seen a variety of sizes and manufacturers (below). Any guidance about which setup and/or...

I have had problems with a temporary loss of oil pressure on high speed turns while racing. Where can I find a slotted / gated oil pan for racing purposes for a 1998 M-3? In particular, I...
