I maybe broke the m3 today. It was making noises I haven't heard before. Angry valve/vanos noises. Even after autocrossing it, it wasn't this angry. I haven't checked the oil for a week though so it might be low. It sucks it down like nobody's business these days. I should start keeping track of how much it's eating. Maybe I need to do the motor this winter and stop nursing this thing along. Whenever it finally lets go, I hope it don't hurt the crank or the block or else I'm out big $$. Though S52 crank + M50 block = 3.0 frankenmotor capable of near 1000HP. 600 on stock head gasket! *sigh*.. My wallet is about to get much lighter either way.
