I raced a SV6 P-plater a few weeks back when I was stock + JB4.
We both pulled up at a dual lane roundabout, and I knew he'd go for it, but I waited until I was on straight road after the round about. He jumped as quick as he could, so he got a head start then I stomped it. The 335 was quicker, and I overtook him and pulled a few car lengths up to about 120... I felt a bit disappointed afterwards though knowing they're 210kw I thought I'd have left him over the horizon. Then I realised a week or so later that at the spot we raced, my car could never have been up to operating temperature that close to home, so the JB4 wasn't even doing anything when I had raced him!!?! Haha. |

I have a modified G6E Turbo Falcon as well as the BMW 335i. There is no comparison in the power difference. The G6E puts out 432rwkw @ 923Nm and pulls 11.08sec @ 127mph on the strip compared to 297rwkw @ 700Nm and 12.1sec @ 118mph for the Beemer.

Well a stock 335 can run a 13 flat, hsvs ect run between 13 13.5 despite the huge power figures so it would be a pretty even race there, given how much difference a jb4 makes to our cars I think you'd be pretty confident racing a gts or xr6t if your tuned.
Obviously after that theres alot more power to get out of a 4l i6t so they always have big power potential when you spend $. |

smashed. XR6 Turbo on the highway. haven't had a proper run against any other Aussie cars. Only other would be a HSV R8 Clubsport, but it wasn't a proper run and he just chased me off the lights

sorry not that knowledgable about Aussie cars but it was the new looking Falcon with the curvier lights. pretty sure he wasn't stock because I could hear him spooling and his BOV.
Mines just JB4, catless DP, exhaust, intake and Alpina transmission flash. this is on map2 which is 14.5PSI. if I remember correctly it was about 75/80-170+ and I floored it from 3rd so he kept up for a bit, if I went to 2nd in sure I wouldve pulled on him instantly. he probably didn't expect a bimmer that's not an M car to pull on him, and before that he kept boosting past me and tail gating me so I just decided to go it haha |

I had a good run against a Maloo in my 335 with JB4, lost the launch but pulled 2 car lengths shortly after. Had a run against a V8 Audi R8 too and won on every attempt. The guy in the Orange wrapped R8 was not impressed but gave me a thumbs up.
I am curious to know how a modded 335 say with JB and few mods will go against a Stock or slightly tuned C63. I never ran times in the 335 or my current ride so bit hard to determine which is quicker. |
