2009 bmw dct e92 ///m3
 
I went from the record holding 335 to a murdered out M3.

Enjoy!

Stock it made 330RWHP

Exhaust and EvolveTune it made 370

Now its SuperCharged @5psi and should be about 500 rwhp

Good times :)

nice

obviously the m3 is better in many categories, but would you say the M was worth the price difference: for a track car or for a daily

I love my 335 and with rb's etc will have the same power as a charged m3 but will have ALOT more tq, and the fuel economy was the reason I went 335 instead of the M, but sometimes i question my decision

Although both 3 series, its 2 different cars. I had every package on the 335. It was awesome for a DD, especially with RB's. 30 mpg was the average. Turbos are cool because you go from mild power (17psi/460hp) to all out (20psi/510+hp)and could rape a lot of unsuspecting cars with a switch of the map.

But in terms of better CAR, the M is in a different league. the interior is nicer and more sporty. The DCT trans is a huge bonus. V8 vs I6 is an easy choice for me.

Price wise, the 335 is a lot more DD friendly, MPG and maintainence. Tq is something i missed when i was N/A, now its not an issue. Fun factor, a charged M3 is WAAAAAY more fun.

If you were local i would let you test it out and see the difference first hand.

Funny story because I had my RB 335 when my buddy had a N/A M3, I loved driving his car more than mine, except when we ran. He was tired of losing to me so got it charged. Once it was charged, I loved driving his even more.

The TQ is is good for driving, but really doesnt play a role in a race, the gearing of the M (charged) negates that advantage and as speed increases, the M is favored.

I would stop questioning it as which "3 series" should I have gotten, because its not really a 3 series, its an M. I dont wanna come off as the usual M prick. but Ive had both now, and again, its 2 different cars.

price for cars is a big factor as well. i got both used, and although same mileage when i bought both, roughly 35k miles, and 2 years later, the M was still 10k more than i got the 335 for. M tax is huge for modding as well

I live in south jersey, but was up north picking the car up from supercharger installation. Probably was me, what day?

The new car looks great. If you dont mind me asking which supercharger set up did you end up going with?
