Weight difference won't matter for right now. I have Bilstein PSS9s right now for the 318ti. I'm not talking about corner balancing the car with the M44 in it, just swapping over a larger braking system and the stronger subframes. I wanted to test the bushing setup for a bit to make sure I like it for the street and HPDEs and then I can do any final tweaks when the car is being swapped.
Regardless, I'm sure this has been done before when people want to keep their cars in a certain track class that are Power/weight or original-engine restricted.
