Guessing my 0-60 w/jb3
I have a 09 335i coupe with the six speed manual. My mods include, JB3 2.0 on map 5 with 91 octane, dual cone intake, and gutted secondary cats. I have 265's on 9.5 inch rims in the rear.
I consider myself an above average manual driver, but by no means am I excellent. I usually quickly feather the clutch out around 2k rpm to launch. Since I don't have any method to accurately test my 0-60, what would be your guess in ideal conditions?

Why don't you just have a friend sit in the back seat with a stopwatch?

Probably 4.1 to 4.4 seconds. It all depends on your launch

On second thought, If I could get someone to hang out in the trunk it a stop watch, their weight might help with traction.
 lol

0-60mph is pretty meaningless. 0-100mph or any 'time to distance' measurement is a much better metric for determining a cars real performance in the real world.
Having said that I would say you're going to be at 4.5 secs or under if you know what you're doing.

or you buy a Gtech Pro like the one I have for sale in the FS: electronics section. No more guessing.

Frankly, if you had better traction (read: drag slicks) and a perfect launch, I'm betting you could go under 4 seconds, with something like a 1.8 second 60-foot time. Especially if you had either an LSD (wavetrac, say) or a steptronic.
My opinion stands on your current setup, however: 4.1 - 4.4 seconds with your 6mt and radials.
