It's really amazing! To get that power on 91 octane just blows my mind.

Excellent runs giac + meth = win. Have you dyno'd it?

I haven't dyno'd it yet but might do it soon.
I think it's interesting though about comparing dynos to real world.

For example, I believe the first car was running around 370 whp and I think mine is over 400. The amazing thing is the throttle response of the M3. Also the gearing si completely different.
On paper it's one thing, but seeing the results on the road is the entire story.

Also, I did screw up with the first M3. I thought he had the secondary cats deleted but it was the primary that were deleted.

The MS intake is still in development so not yet.

Yah, I goofed.

Yah, I know, but it was a good thing that I left when i did.
I forgot about my wife's plans and I made it home just in time.
I think the better comparo would be with an MT IMO.
I'm also glad that we can talk about these vids without the "my tune is better than yours" stuff.

I was thinking about this too. Before I used to say, "Those M3s have such great top end power, but now it's the other way around."

Nothing like some nice Sunday a.m runs. Always fun meeting up with everyone!

GIAC flash here I come!

Not a difference at all. Bolt-on M3's are also in the 11's.

Mr.5 and DLSJ5 seem to have very equal cars.

Great to see BMW's movin, love it.

Isn't there only one bolt on M3 in the 11's? And at Sacramento too

exactly! every shift the 335 looses the meters it just won. Too bad you do not have the 335i DCT over there!

Nice videos, thanks for sharing!

+1000.

Former_Boosted_IS · 12-21-2009, 05:06 AM

Mr. 5, the car seems to be running incredibly fast! Well done!

I think you would agree the N54 loves meth huh?

gt3fever · 12-21-2009, 05:57 AM

nice runs as always. PERFECT shifting way to present 6MT

SpmnE9zero · 12-21-2009, 06:25 AM

These were interesting runs to say the least.
I really enjoyed watching the differences in the gear ratios. I think you def have a one up on both of your buddies in the shifting department. Your car makes mad hp on top end. It is amazing to see how hard it pulls in the higher rpms. Good job op!

There is only one so far but more will follow, regardless it makes zero difference that it was done at Sacramento. 12.04 at Famoso, on the stock exhaust front seat in, 11.88 with the Borla exhaust at Sacramento and no front seat.

stressdoc · 12-21-2009, 11:15 AM

Looks like it takes DCT to keep up with a proper 335. Can't wait to see how a DCT 335 will move!

bren335i · 12-21-2009, 12:43 PM

the glass is half full...

looks like it takes race gas or meth to keep up with a 91oct bolt on DCT

A418t81 · 12-21-2009, 01:08 PM

Great vids Craig, you have come a long way with that car. DLS' car is very strong. I'm impressed. Great shifting as well.

Yup, definitely more to come. I remember early in the year, some people said there was absolutely no way a bolt-on M3 could get into the 11's. I believe you pulled multiple 11 sec runs last time.

Love these 335i's, a few thousand dollars in mods and you can fly. Great stuff for the BMW.

I hope you picked up a Sombrero for me while you were down in Mexico

The N54 has amazed me more and more during the development of this software. Thank you for showing them what all of our hard work is equating to.

On the contrary, it takes a GIAC flash, upgraded x-pipe/borla exhaust, pulley and upgraded filter to keep up with a GIAC stage 2+ E90 6MT 335i. It is amazing to see how well the E9x M3 reacts to basic bolt ons and a flash.

NRG · 12-21-2009, 02:48 PM

Amazing runs Mr.5! GIAC FTW!!!

Ferre86 · 12-21-2009, 03:12 PM

Pewpew! Impressed Me!

i wouldnt expect that much from 3.35,

nicely done,

what did you trap for those runs? are any M3s breaking into the 120s yet?

btw, great runs guys!

BadBoostedBMWM3 · 12-23-2009, 08:53 PM

Nice runs.... Drew's car is wicked! So, this is impressive.
