I agree with the tuned 335 being able to take it and i said that in my first post. Problem is that after your first pull, 335 will suffer with the stock intercooler
Well, now we're talking a different story because the same friend that has the damn C55 is picking up his C63 today! So that could be a problem! Haha

I'd get intercooler first. It will combat the heat soak. Tune FMIC is faster then Tune Downpipe, especially after back to back pulls. As Mike said, you will eventually need both. FMIC is easier to install which is why I suggest it first also. It also make the motor happier as it lowers combustion temps and improves efficiency on the turbo side.
Thanks, I'll probably end up ordering one in the future! So damn expensive though. I was thinking of getting one from VRSF. Everyone seems to love the service and what not!

First pull you might get the better of him, second pull with your stock intercooler he will win easy.
You need catless DP and intercooler and it wont be even close.
They are. But, I beat my friends c63 AMG with dp's, intake, and tune.
Well the guy I'm talking about just picked up a C63 so now I gotta think of something to take that! Haha crazy thinking a 335i with only a tune, intake, and dps can take a c63. How close was it? Cause stock those things haul ass!

Raced a 2015 isF yesterday by the way. With only tune, intake, and secondary cats deleted I stuck with him side to side until we hit 100 and had to merge! I was surprised that my car was able to keep up with a 470 hp car! 335s fly with the right mods
