What is the setup on this car?

I have seen a couple of videos of this guy driving his 135i against some fast cars and I am really impressed. By the car and his ability too.

On the video it says Vargas Stage 2 .....but what else? Built motor?

Or in other words, what is needed to achieve this performance ? (besides $$$ of course)

doubt the motor was built. most likely just turbos and supporting mods. maybe port injection. these cars are fast.

Unlikely that the motor is built, there aren't many of those floating around out there. Been watching a couple threads on another forum about an ABR built motor that looks like it is quite difficult to get working properly.

If you want big speed on this platform, basically just need a bigger turbo setup and proper fueling for it.
