05 c230 kompressor SS 6MT & 07 BMW 335i

Greetings

well, i just wanted to say hello to everyone. i just traded in my audi a4 for an 05.5 c230 kompressor sedan. the c is opel with black interior, the sport model, with a 6 speed manual. my first impressions were very good. the car rides well, sort of stiff, but nice. the engine is phenomenal and the interior is very stylish. i am also liking the amg body kit and the supercharger whine at high rpms. i was also surprised at the power. now, i am coming from a highly modded 03 audi a4 1.8t quattro. my a4 had every mod excluding an aftermarket turbo and definitely screwed. but, today as i was driving home from providence, i had a run with a new infiniti g35x on the highway. i was surprised that i remained dead locked with him well into the 100s. he was def on it so i was just taken back at my keeping up. but anyways, i dont plan on doing many performance mods because it was just a nightmare with the a4. im sure ill do some cosmetic things and some minor upgrades so ill be asking some questions of you folks in the near future. again, just wanted to say hello and its nice to be here! cheers

Good Tie on the G35X but if that was a regular non-AWD G35 you would have had slightly worse results. The AWD has a big HP loss due to the AWD power train (i'm sure you know that if your Audi was a Quattro) Hence putting you at near around the same Power to the wheels.

CONGRATS ANYWAY!!
