Should I Be Satisfied???

A maxed out 335 does 11.8 1/4 mile and will be faster than IS-F, and a 135 is slightly faster than that. If you have a 335 with a JB3 tune, full exhaust/downpipe, intake etc. it will beat a stock IS-F, RS4, or M3 (won't beat the C63, especially with a chip). But once the super sedans start modding, then they will have the edge.
I've yet to see anyone with a decently modded IS-F run against a really modded 135/335.

Well my friend has a 135i with the Dinan stage 2 tune. We ran it 3 times up to about 100 (traffic did not allow for more) and we were pretty much neck and neck the whole way. I felt that if we would of kept going I would of started to pull away but it is what it is...I dont know if I should be angry, or satisfied. I mean thats a 3.5 twin turbo in a 2 door with a ECU tune and it was neck and neck with me. I mean...I dunno. All I do know is that race just speeded up my MOD process. I have been waiting for a decent intake to come out but F that...(no pun intended) I think Im just going to have to jump on the JoeZ exhaust ...I wanted something that would remove the tips but I cant wait any longer..I need more speed..At least to whoop 135s...

Most of the 135 and 335 are not going to get into the low 12s without a lot of mods. Most of those cars hitting close to 400rwhp have race intercoolers, full exhaust, chip, race fuel, etc... Not only that, a lot of cars are having fuel pump issues, along with voided BMW warranties. That is a big reason I went with the ISF vs 335i.
Yes, a topped out 335 or 135 may be a faster than a stock ISF, but there is always gonna be someone faster. Just go buy some exhaust and an intake.
