There's only two cases where a stock M3 can give a tuned 335i all it can handle:

1. If the M3 is a DCT version and especially the lightest e92 M3
2. If the tune only 335i is a 6MT and on 91 Octane.

If those two facts exist, put your money on the stock M3

But if the tune only 335i is a 6AT and on 91 Octane put your money on it if the M3 is a 6MT, and it'll be REALLY close if the M3 is a DCT

Now if the tune only 335i is a 6AT and on 93 Octane, put your money on the tune only 335i over any stock M3, but it will be pretty close with an stock e92 M3 DCT however.

With an additional mod on top of the tune, or octane higher than 93 and it becomes an "easy" win for the 335i over the stock M3's.
