Default rematch, me Vs Supercharged M3

I posted a video of my last race against this M3. I met up with him again last night at ATCO, this time he was Supercharged, His car MOVED! I did bogg off the line, and had a shitty reaction time, but his car is beastly

My money would be that he has the ESS kit. This is the same kit that I run on my m3. For the e92 they make 625hp on pump w/out meth. The kit is as clean and reliable as the SOS kits for the s2000. The cost differential is a whole other story.

8k ish for the lower HP kits - around 500hp and up to 15k for the higher HP kits (bordering on 700hp) from ESS/Gintani/etc.

He must have been super pissed that he still lost after dumping $8,000

Great meeting you man!
Car is SIIIICK! Im contemplating picking one up and building one for a late night highway monster now

The kit on the car is an ESS 535 kit, but i added some boost and small meth injection since its not intercooled.

My plan from day 1 was to strap a blower on the car as its underpowered in N/A form, comparitivley

Soon im going to upgade to a higher kit and it should be a very VERY even match up

SO no, im not mad when I lose against real enthusiasts and cool guys that just wanna have fun. I still get beat a lot, as you can see from the other video's on my page, but then again, i win pretty often too. Its all about sportsmanship

Joey, like i was saying, that car would stack up against some formidable cars i hang around with. ill text you when we meet up agin and see if your up for some fun, as always, GoPro's are on me

very cool guy, and by far the best sounding M3 I have ever heard. I am going to head out to ATCO again tomorrow, I believe there is a test and tune for street cars only, hopefully it's not as bad as last night.....ugh hgh that was awful
