Default Me vs 335i TT

Raced a beautiful 335i today, he was insanely fast off the line and I could reel him in but did so ever so slowly and we were going over speeds that would have gotten us shot by the police and swat. Taking off I couldn't keep traction because every time id slam into second at 9200 the ass would break out and id go sideways causing me to have to counter steer to keep it straight.


Guy was really cool, we spoke at a couple traffic lights, at first he tells me its all stock. I call BS on him and after some teasing he admits its a twin turbo, reflash and some other mods. He wouldn't tell me exactly how much he was putting down other than it was upper 400s.



I am CTSC @10 psi at put down 350 on a roller dyno on my last retune.

You were probably a much better driver then. My friend has the 335i convertible fully stock. It is a quick beast. My M3 could keep up. My S needs to be in vtec to stay with her.

The N55s aren't quite as impressive as the N54s and he wan't putting down upper 400's on stock turbos. Stock turbos are only good for mid 400s and he'd probably need to be tuned for E85 and running meth as well as being tuned, charge pipe, DPs and upgraded FMIC.
