a properly tuned 335/135 will destroy all but FI 350/370's,and even then its going to be close. with a slight edge to the 335's. Im sure a few people will chime in here shortly now that we have gone this route
what do jb4'd 335i run?

what does a properly tuned 335/135i run?

They're pretty quick in a straight line, and on some road courses. They (especially the 1 series) have some suspension issues that really cause problems on more demanding road courses.

Factory turbo cars are always going to offer quite a bit of tuning potential.

i was looking very hard for the right 335i but i just wasnt sure about them and finding one with the correct warranty and CPO and options was kinda hard.

true that that JB3-4 whatever they are at now makes the 335i pretty tough but turning up the boost in a car CAN not will but CAN have issues

not stock they do NOT have LSD. you have to get up to the M series to get one. Surprising in the new Car and Driver they compare
G37 IPL
M1 Coupe
Audi TT-RS

BMW is cheapest i believe, crazy to say yeah the BMW is the cheapest in anything......

oh but remember this

135/335's do NOT come with LSD. but 135/335 was not the sports car argument

135/335's are rather impressive in 1/4 mile and 60-130 runs.

since we have factory turbo's, tuning is easy. what i meant by that is a car that is using his octane and boost proportionatly. basically an N54 that runs octane for 16-17 psi, is going to put a hurtin on A LOT of cars.

and yes cossie, you can buy a corvette and run circles around, but is that the total package?

If you put it up against a forced induction Z, supercharged or TT'ed, a fully tuned 335i with stock turbos would not have an edge.

really? i dont think you know what your talking about. I dont think your aware of what fully modded N54's can do.

Stock turbo N54a are running 119-123mph in the 1/4 mile

im shooting for 126+mph this season, i have upgraded turbo's (stock housing, upgraded internal's ect)
