335+software vs ISF

AJN334 · 03-30-2008, 07:53 PM

Can a 335 outrun a ISF from say 0-100?

Hunter399 · 03-30-2008, 07:57 PM

prolly depending on the tune

cooldude · 03-30-2008, 08:00 PM

Unless the mod is to swap it with m3's engine and retain those two turbo's

then you might leave the is-F-aar behind

SSTT 335i outran a IS-F past 0-100+mph. do a quick search.

He just saw the video and decided to make a thread and ask this AWESOME question.

i thought an average moded 335 can give a good match to the IS-F

I ran 12.7s five straight passes in my xi with JB2H. That would be a good race wouldn't it?

What video? And I thought it is a good benchmark car, given it is a bit faster than a M3 Sedan. So I thought I'd see if anyone has ran one hence the post. Why do I need to justify, next time I will ask for your permission

Most tests show the M3 is slightly faster than the ISF. The latest Car and Driver results are:
M3 e90 0-60 4.1 secs, 1/4 mile 12.6 at 113mph.
ISF 0-60 4.4 secs, 1/4 mile 12.8 at 114mph.

Thanks, Mike.

335 + procede v2 = is-f behind

Yes however the times of these to cars seems to be very subjective to many variables. I think in the real world the ISF has the clear advantage do to is consistently higher trap speed and much higher torque rating...

Why was this thread moved and closed? How is this off topic?

TheLegacy · 03-31-2008, 03:26 PM

my roomate n I checked out an IS F. Car has power but sluggish tranny and heavy. I'd take my PROceded 335XI over an IS F anyday.

Its a nice car but Lexus isn't known for performance cars, maybe the IS300 cuz its a supra based motor but thtat was after it had turbo kits.

The Car and Driver comparison test makes the point that the BMW makes it's peak torque at a lower, more usable RPM than the ISF, 3900 vs 5200. Also, the BMW is slightly faster to 100 and 150 MPH. The BMW was also 100 pounds lighter.

Is the 335i in reverse or using the forward gears?
