kudos on your win! i lined up against a E46 M3 a couple nights ago, first and second gear were evenly matched when it hit third he pulled hard on me, not once but twice.

A few years back, after I got the SC installed, I did innumberable runs with a good friend who had a 6MT E46 M3, stock down to the air filter. We switched drivers, ran on slight uphills, slight downhills, totally flat, with most runs from 40-120 and it was about as even as two cars could be in a straight line. Without FI, the M3 'should' be the faster car.
I've also run my friend's stock E46 M3 (with nearly a brand new engine to boot!), and it was dead even from 40 to xxx as well. They have a pretty good top end, and the torque definitely helps.

Not "suppose to happen" but possible especially at lower speeds. Good kill!

M3 is a great car

I have a friend that i always race after every mod to see how im doing because i dont care how mutch power i make really. Last race after my headers we ran at a 25 roll a 40roll and a 70 roll it was a dead heat every time side by side the whole time and he has a hamann exhaust and programming on his 04 M3 Convert and i race my other friend with SMG tranny same year same mods and he is a lil faster mostly because he is a Coupe both BMW clup racers, I have done some weight reduction also like soft top removal gutted trunk and the AC is out.

If any one here loses to a M3 by a little make him or her take a passenger lol the game changes a lil not a whole lot but from a roll you have a better chance from a Stop/Dig/Launch Forget it M3s smoke the S2

Dont think he was on it fully cause from a Dig i get spanked by a car right off the bat
