Coming from the GTO world that "crazy sick" exhaust didn't gain him more than about 8rwhp. The stock exhaust is very efficient. You are also forgetting the fact that any catback sounds "crazy sick" with that engine. V8s just sound that way..

Most LS2 GTOs dyno around 340RWHP and about the same in RWTQ (which is 401 Crank HP/TQ with 18% drivetrain loss). Procedes are dynoing around 340rwhp with around 390 rwtq right? You should take him off the line and it be pretty even - he wouldn't be able to gain on you. The gearing is also a lot more agressive in your car as well.

However spend $2k on a Cam/headers/tune for that car and it will be putting out about 410rwhp and 380rwtq.. (484hp/449tq at the crank)

Oh yeah, no doubt. He claimed his car was at 425HP, but then again, he also claimed he runs the 1/4 mi. in 9 sec.

btw -- his exhaust sounded so sick that I swear I saw flames coming out of those big fat pipes!!!!! Big, loud deep "burples." Nice.

He probably had the SLP Loudmouth exhaust or something similar where it has no mufflers but empty resonators instead.. 425 at the crank may have been close, but I think that was even stressing it..

Yeah, I guess so...I just look at his 8 or so posts; this guy is a complete NeoNazi psycho. We certainly don't need any of his kind on our very fine Forum. Anyone offended by his b.s, please PM the Admins so they can delete his posts and give him the boot off of here.

It might just be the fact that 335i is a classy looking car that doesn't really look like a racer car but in reality it is.

Yes, I love the 335i's "stealth" factor.

Mark or Jason deleted all his posts from the last 2 days and it looks like they'll have to do it again. Not a good idea to pick a fight with admins of a forum.

Looks like they did delete them again; hopefully they banned him, and even if he resurfaces under a new name, they recognize him and give him the boot again. Thank you Admins!!!! I just deleted my response post since it contained his NeoNazi b.s...don't want my thread tainted by that hate crap.

It's a good thing...they were quite the NeoNazi, uneducated PWT, racist, offensive b.s. kind of comments which has no place here or anywhere. Unfortunately, there are still some real sick fuks in this world.

Yesterday, I see a red e46 330i coupe. It had an m3 badge. So I get next to him and tewll him to roll the windows down. The I say, thats not an m3, with a chuckle. The guy insisted it was an m3, and that he brought the motor from the states and that he adapted it to his car. I just told him to rev it. There it is.... Hahaha, I just laughed and pulled away hard, so he could know my car was faster than his supposedly m3.. LOL

Not a BMW story, but on a vacation a 01 civic with all the bells and whistles:

rims, exhaust bigger then my head, stickers to indicate a vtech engine, and maybe even an SI edition


Pulled up next to my Enterprise rental 02 Chevy Cavalier 4 door with the system blasting and clearly wanting to race.

He was MT, I was AT.

At about 40 I was 1 car length ahead, and at 80 I was about 5. He later tried to follow me, probably to see what mods I had.

Just another story of a dead ricer. I can't wait to do the same in my 328.

The 14 second barrier is like the Sound Barrier for Nissan, no one thought they could get through it but Mr. Sawzall and this Beaut of a Nissan came close.

Here's a great example..... S52 MZ3, lightly moded, and multiple "kills" on 335's. Gottal love the power of the human imagination. "So 2 instances of my M Roadster pulling away on the new 335... I guess the 335 just ain't that fast!"
