The i has a procede+ downpipes, the xi has a jb2h+ r which is not as powerfull as the procede! and doesnt even have dp, only an air filter and bov(which adds no power). The xi clearly destroy it 0-60 let alone 60' and yes the u was slowly catching up but the argument that you guys started was for 69' so there you have it PROOF!!!!!! Not some fkn talk about dragtimes which uses people cars(arent evenly modded, different conditions..etc) Both of you are so fkn stubborn, no shit the xi is faster off the line why the hell do you think that the x6m is bmws fastest car 0-60?? Power to weight ratio? NO the m6 has better power to weight but its rwd... |

wow--people aren't playing nice in this thread.
Let me give my opinion- as the current fastest Xi on dragtimes. The Xi, at the strip, with the same mods (in this case, tune, DPs, FMIC) is going to rip off 1.8s or better pretty consistently- on regular stock tires or all seasons. With a good driver- 1.6s and low 1.7s. (I have a number of postings on dragtimes, and a number of 1.68-1.70 slips that I never posted because whats the point). The "I"can certainly match that with DRs, good track prep, and a good driver. There are not that many people with the "I" who have ran 11s with my same mods (relative to the number who have been trying). Tune, DPs, BMS filter, FMIC. Many of the ones who have, and even some who have come close- do have higher traps though. Thre is no doubt in my mind that my Xi will be caught, and passed, by the "I" with identical mods. Where I think most folks miss it- including many in this thread- is that it is a wide margin. Trust me- it isn't. Its very very slow pull- and if you don't have the same mods, you may not pull at all. I have had several races with "similar" modded "I" and they were from an 80 roll- and I pulled. for the dude who has the 300C srt8 with mods- and claims the Xi would be "Freight trained"..... all I can tell you is, as a person who has owned two srt8s, and an even faster heavily modified 300C, (as well as a 2009 CTS-V)- you are wrong about that. Not sure what your bolt ons are- but I wished I lived near you...we could run. Not saying who would win- but I ASSURE you- your thought thah the Xi falls off at 80 could not be more wrong. I have posted many vids on here, and N54-showing some of those races of my car versus one of my other cars. Now- as for the street-- the Xi with my mods is hadr to beatr off the line. My G-tech times are 3.7-3.9 0-60. My Damn V has a hard time keeping up even when it hooks....

The thread states "At the strip" which is "faster"(trap speed). Not the street! With the right set up (which is typical for some one to try to do at a srtip)an "i" can and will match the "Xi" 60' times and more than often the "i" Will trap faster which is what the op was asking. Edit: By the way very nice times! Please post up the rest of you times slips on Dragtimes, the Xi needs more representation. Last edited by chili36; 03-21-2011 at 02:16 PM.. Reason: Add on |

Peoples point of view are not facts, a video is not an accurate way to measure any performance unless there is a vbox or other device in the vid showing actual performance.

These cars are amazing in either version..... as an fyi-- if you look at that 11.9 run on my car- the 1/8 mile MPH is the third fastest of ANY 335i or Xi- and as far as I know- the fastest ever without meth or NOS. And I have it that 96 a number of times...

fun video
here is a Vid of my 335Xi. what makes it interesting is the other car is an 09 CTS-V being driven by a professional driver from Motor Trend whan they were testing the V before its release to public.
My car just had a tune and DPs at that time, and it was a slow run (first of the day) at 12.7. The pro got a good launch tho- 1.95 60 ft. which is awesome for that car on a mediocre (sticiness) track on street tires. If I recall my launch was 1.75ish... I got them to race me cuz I told them I had one of the first Vs on order-which was true. Funny thing-- I ran a 12.1 @119 in mine at the same track, stock. But the launch was only 2.01 http://www.dragtimes.com/2009-Cadill...eos-16478.html

Yup thats what Ive been saying all along, not that the xi is faster 1/4 mile but that in 60' or 0-60 an xi will always be faster. Thanks for your info, maybe these guys will consider it "facts" |
