Why do they have more power? Do they run a different manifold as that is the only difference made possible by having the steering wheel on the correct side.

I don't know what is the number but in the older days the RHD were usually 5bhp down because of the different exhaust manifold. |

5 bhp I can believe from the manifold, RHD manifolds are far more restrictive than the LHD ones, look at the LHD Supersprint and Epic manifolds compred to the RHD supersprint one, far better. Looking forward to getting a better LHD manifold on mine

Tom > We confirmed today that the CSL does NOT have more welding points on the chassis neither less under carriage undercoating.

Tom, are you adding these too ? BTW, no info about color codes. There is a lack of knowledge at BMW M. I asked for the chassis stiffness, they didn't know the number. Having said that. I somehow doubt what they said. I personally think we need to count the welding points, the ones visible and compare them to a normal M3. |

I started documenting the welding points.
