interesting. i'm not surprised about the gti, though i am a little skeptical about you pulling on the M3 like that with just a code3 pulley.....that should have pulled you. the only explanation was a bad driver (if it is a manual) and/or a bad launch by him that left you in the dust. you don't make enough power with your mods to pull on a new M3.

i'm NOT surprised the JB3 335i ate you up as those things make some serious power and are no laughing matter. EVO X, also not surprised, though late hit or not, you would have no chance against it.

nice stories though, and be safe.

Yeah I'm very surprised about the e92 as well, idk what going on with him? He went all the way up too considering I spun on the dig he must has been a poor driver and the evo x is serious lol but I plan on pulling an e92 with a tune and maybe a better match with the evo and 335

335i JB3 is wonderful for about 5000 miles until the turbos melt or the engine blows apart. :p I've heard a few stories recently about that.

Only thing my friend said with his jb3 tune was going into limp mode after some hard runs at the track during 20 minute sessions...other than that.

the 335i engine is fine. Sometimes the turbos go out, the limp mode is caused by high oil temps or dying fuel pump. Your buddy needs to upgrade his oil cooler. Some of the 335i's didn't come with oil coolers if you didn't buy the sports package.
