Let's lay out some facts here: 1. Atlantic motor sports is notorious for their high reading "dynopack" dyno. 2. Atlantic motor sports is NOT buschur racing. Are you trying to say their tuner is as good as David Buschur who has put out pump gas 9sec cars? 3. You have mild cams, and you will be on 93 octane, no meth. Tell me how you'll make 400whp easy? 4. I have been in evo scene long enough to see how much power a certain combination of parts can make. And let me tell you my friend, you will NOT make 400+whp with those parts and fuel. If you don't believe me, get it tuned, see 400whp on AMS's dynopack and take it to the track. You'll see right around 113-115mph if you're full weight.

Best thing to do if you haven't done so is to drive one around in different road conditions to see if the level of refinement/class is what you are wanting. That is if you haven't done so already.

I came from an Evo IX MR to the 335i. Truthfully, I wish I could have both and miss the Evo. I love the creature comforts of the 335i but I'm a little wary of reliability in the future. Both my evos rattled a bit but were mechanically rock solid and they were made to be easy to work on and maintain. The Evo IX was the end of an era- cable actuated throttle, no traction/stability control, and lightweight to boot.

I used to own a 650 whp evo built by Atlantic Motorsports and although it was a very fast car I honestly enjoy my 335 better as it is a great daily driver and so refined. However on the same note as much as I love the 335 I cannot wait to get back into a vette again. I regretted selling my last vette more than anything. Best of luck and you will not be dissapointed with the 335.

I'm another previous EVO VIII owner now with E90 335i.
My Evo was totally stock and I was disappointed. The power just seemed to go soft after the initial surge where my 335i seems to accelerate harder with each shift. I also was not a fan of the combination of turbo, manual transmission and AWD...bogged off the line and the turbo lag was just awful. My 2 cents. 335i is luxury and performance, but the Evo is in a totally different class in the handling department.
