I will be very disappointed if I can't get a 7.7. And yes, I will try and figure out a way to get it on video with a boost gauge showing.

Please post up the graph with elevation change as well.
Thanks.

I'm positive they'll post some videos together in Warrens Alley

Add some juice to the M3, hotrod will have zero chance.

Quicker Gintani FI M3's are also on the way.

Just the beginning.

There's an extended version with comparo runs against an M5 and 997TT on the same youtube account. I just got the car, only done a few 60-130 runs, there's more to do, with hopefully better #'s and times. This was done at full weight, street tires, and 91 octane, it is not tuned aggressively for Meth, that is utilized to further cool intake temps, per my request.

Warren's car is flat out amazingly fast, I've seen it progress quite a bit, if anyone can beat the 7.7 it's him!

Craig, thanks for posting this up!

Quicker 335's are also on the way.

Just the beginning.

Congrats on the car man, it's a beast. I'd love to see some of those types of M3's over here on the east coast, alas Active Autowerke is nowhere to be found...

Was that a 997.1 TT? It looked pretty fast.

Yes it is, the 997tt looked fast? It just about disappeared out of the rear view mirror!

Thanks man!! I'm sure AA will be out soon as well as have a well designed running kit.

sweet vid! 4dr M3 is now useful! no need for AMG now.

Wow

[ak335]

wowoow

[GeorgeSmooth]

That is a mind boggling fast. Do you guys reckon the N54's with the upgraded turbos stand a chance of matching it or will it only be nitros vehicles?

[dzenno]

Well, LostMarine over on N54tech made over 500whp on race+meth with his upgraded stg 2 turbos so the power is there..he'll be redynoing soon

Sick M3!

I think you're right about those #'s, and we found that the intial dyno's were not accurate. When the car was static on the dyno it was not getting enough air, but while in motion it was, hence the lackluster #'s, but soild 60-130 time. With a new intake, the car made 579whp and 386wtq at 9psi on 91+Meth. You refer to your buddies AA E46 M3, when my car was NA, w/ all the bolt on's, I was pretty close with my buddies 9.5psi AA SC'dE46 M3. No way a supercharged E46 M3 runs in the 7's, without at least 15+psi and a built motor.

Thanks George, I was able to hit a 7.37 not too long ago. I think the N54's will be able to achieve some excellent #'s with upgraded turbo's. No reason why on boost only they can't achieve or beat my times.

Good stuff!

I find "supercharged M3" threads pretty boring. This is because such cars are not mainstream, and 99% of M3 owners will not ever dare or pay ($10k ?) to install a supercharger, let alone the fact that an M3 with supercharger it's just like any other cheap car with a supercharger...

So why is it boring when someone actually does take the time and spend the money and build up an amazing motor?

And i'm not really following your logic on how the M3 is now a cheap car with a supercharger??

Then you on the wrong forum.
