No numbers yet but the tune has come along nicely and the car is running strong from what I understand. Making more power than the stock internal SC's I hear :whistle:

This makes me want to consider the M3. But my poor wallet and other shit in life I need to do.
8400 rpm V8 with twin turbos? People were hating on this car? It's going to be like the E46 M3 all over again except even better. It's going to be funny to watch people just look like idiots.
It's amazing honestly. Got to hear it in person yesterday, and saw it fly down the track while I was driving behind it. There is nothing else to say but amazing. Sounds like a TT Ferrari with the v8 and the high revs, it's a masterpiece.Quote:

He said the low end power is nuts, not like a regular m3 would ever feel like. I won't say anymore, it's not my spot to lol.
People are going to get a rude awakening on stock internal performance once you no longer lose power due to manually spinning a compressor wheel.Quote:

Now for someone to do a built motor turbo built DCT setup... hint hint.
Alex really knows his stuff. The people who were talking down on forums just don't have a clue.

They've been testing this kit for a while on Brians car. I always thought it was built, but Alex said they're testing on stock motor. They don't want any surprises with this kit, it has to be perfect.
It will be perfect. I saw the manifolds a while back and couldn't really say anything but the work is top notch.
More peak power, fatter curve, better throttle response, what's not to love?
I want these turbos and I don't mind being the built motor test mule. The problem is even my motor may not hold the power that this can put out. Excuse to rebuild it I guess...
Is there anything else to do though?Quote:

i know how much that car makes at the moment :) very impressive. Like i said....im done with blowers......turbo all day from now on
Amazing! The e9x m3 is finally starting to get some excellent power options. There is absolutely nothing better than a twin turbo v8 that revs to 8400 rpms. Wow..
Blowers FTL, proven once again.
@Sticky what turbos will you be spinning on this motor? That’s the real question.
my next question is now gonna be what are u gonna do about the dct now?....gintanis TT car is making WAAAAAAAAY more tq than a sc m3...
I'm assuming they could control boost / power onset per gear? Good question.... the DCT, while awesome, does make it complicated
@Sticky you were having issues with the dct at your current TQ figure....id assume TT looking at these numbers and what i know it made will about double those tq figures....so your tq 'multiplication" turns into tq "exponents"...lol
