I would've modified my car more if it was an auto. Not that the manual can't handle it. There are manual C7Z's out there on the stock clutch making 800rwhp. I just didn't want to deal with any more power than i already have, through a manual. Especially with how long my gearing is. You can't really have fun with it unless you strictly roll race. I only need a 3-4 shift whenever i do lol. It's insane but yet dumb how GM put these long gears in these cars.
I'm new to the BMW world so i know absolutely nothing. So that's why i'm afraid to do anything to the car lol. I basically wanna keep it stock but any car i get, i always do something to it. So i know i'll eventually install a part on the M3 when i get it. I just want to enjoy it stock for a bit before i do. But it's definitely clear the JB4/racechip are the best bang for buck for getting insane power. I'm only worried about warranty.

A conservative jb4 map probably won't do much harm to this drive train. Seems like it's pretty over engineered. Given Bmws history I'd be more worried about the chassis falling apart.
