Hey Rominl,

Small world, Steve just linked me this thread.

I'm confident my car is faster. Ask him.

On a serious note, this car is so absolutely fun, you are correct about the IS350 not even in the same league (IMO). Totally different car but a Proceded 335i is so much more fun than an IS350 with the same amount of money in mods. FI ftw.

Yeah, I know Steve, great guy. He was actually supposed to meet us up Saturday but we ended up having scheduling conflicts. I'm seeing him again Wednesday at my friend Long's place. He's the one who installs all of our goodies. I'm actually IMing him right now. I have the same Procede, just confident I'm faster HAHA. I think I'm getting downpipes/exhaust next. I plan on making 400+ rwhp. It will be fun.

Here's a link to my Garage on E90Post:

Let me know if you have any questions.

The stock 335i is on par with e46 M3 already if not faster.
The bimmer just keep getting better.

Since your friend is in socal, any chance he will dyno it say at Tuning Techonologies?

Friend of mine dyno'd recently with proceede v1 and made 280 at wheels on a Mustang inertia load dyno. Not bad, but not Supra TT territory yet.

Why? Most likely will be a dyno queen that won't run faster than 12s anyways.

280 at wheels with PROcede? Maybe you meant 380? This car goes 280 at wheels stock.

No SMG. Just $100.00 optional paddle shifters to go along with the steptronic auto.

On a dynojet maybe but not on an inertia loaded dyno as a DD or MD. If you're not familiar with the concept, you'd be surprised how much a stock e46puts out on it as reference (225 whp).

You mean stock E92 right? My E46 330i is rated at 225 at the crank. I think it would be about 180 at the wheels. I'd be a very happy guy otherwise
