my little brother's buddy owns a 2011 5.0 M6 with 3.73.
he came with my little brother from Dallas yesterday so we decided to run the cars. 335 = Cobb tune @ 15.5psi, ETS FMIC and BMS DCI 5.0 = Bama tune, Steeda CAI and 3" x-pipe with Kooks catback i launched in 2nd gear on the runs from a dig - last video shows me giving him a whole car length at the light. his car freight trains @ 80mph. |

Stating the obvious here. These very enlightening vids illustrate that an automatic is clearly faster from a stand still. You're gonna get a perfect launch every time and you don't have to let up off the gas between shifts.
It's during the rolling starts when your friend is moving along at 3,000 rpm that all he had to do is stab the gas and he got you. On these 30 mile per hour starts, did you have yours in sport-manual mode with it locked in to about 2 or 3rd gear? |

Have any of you guys had an intercooler or downpipes installed at a shop locally? If so, where and how much? I could probably do it myself but if it's not too bad I will just get it done.

hey guys!
I know I am a drag still because of all the questions about 335i... ready to buy an 07 coupe for 20k with no warranty, etc...from a friend at work. She sells because she has a Range Rover, lol but my other friends said I cant change brake, battery, oil, etc... all the maintenance has to be done via dealership???????? that kills my joy |

what kills my joy is anyone willing to buy a 335 without warranty.
be sure it has warranty dude - it's the safest and most practical decision you will ever make. |
