rated at a 13.5, with some hitting 13.4, Z's stock are doing 13.2's all day. The Z is the faster car, sorry to crush your dreams fellas.
2007 BMW 335i Sedan - Short Take Road Test - Auto Reviews - Car and Driver
oh and BTW, I shat upon one at the drags this past sunday, will post vid/pics in the media section. |
I've run 13.1 stock w/ the excellent RFT's at the HRP track. It's not impossible, but i digress.. caranddriver is the end all be all.
And of course the 11.3 second pass was not a stock car. I posted the quickest 370z pass to date, which is 12.8 (and also not stock).
The 11.7 (former record) was run tune only by a 335i. $500~ mod.

I like when this topic comes up. Vishnu is one of many tuning companies by the way (and not the largest).

Nothing instantly voids a warranty.

The ECU has no idea (when shut down properly) that anything has been done to it. Are you talking about flashes? Which is becoming more popular in the e92 community now.

I'm at 30,000 miles without a single maintenance issue.
I'm not trying to argue, but to dispell the common bs/myths that regard these cars in general. As seen, I dealt with nicknick earlier.
