400hp N/A on a stock block seems very, very possible, lol. People are hitting 340-350whp with just I/H/E and a tune...CAn't wait for some more mods to come in and take it to that 400hp mark. ^_^

Has anyone started working on the VVEL yet? Seems like once people can tune the VVEL there is an easy 5-10% more power on top of the basic mods.

i am very ignorant when it comes to tuning and so forth, but from a 330hp @ crank to 400 @ wheel without FI sounds like a joke to me. could you entertain me a bit and explain how anyone could reach 400 @ wheel without FI?

For the lack of better things to do I have been following M3's FI section on m3post.com. the engine puts over 350 hp at the wheel (414 at crank) and everyone finds it a stretch to even reach 400 hp without FI on that car...

edumacation, please!
