What does a Gintani Stage 3 include? And how much power is it pushing?

I would guess it's blown and pushing some good power. Surprising a 520 rwhp car pulls that crazy on a car that is built up pretty well too.

Nice win for the Merc.

These Weistec cars are very quick and fast.

There are a couple Black Series cars with this blower that are supposedly going to be upping the performance soon.

If I'm not mistaken the Gintani stage 3 is a low compression built motor consisting of pistons and con rods, Gintani SC (Probably running methanol).
Its doing 750 crank HP. The owner of the M3 is a super nice guy.

Is this Eugene Taiwan's car?

I wonder if the M3 was functioning at its best?

Yup,

I know he didn't tighten his SC belt all the way when he installed the kit, so it wasn't working to its full potential.
Don't know if he tightened it when running the Weistec C63.
His car is a beast nonetheless.

Ah, gotcha.

Even if the M3's blower was making the intended boost, there would still likely be a disparity in rwtq -- in favor of the Benz -- and that gives it the advantage to pull away. Also, the M156 has the ability to keep on pulling way up high so it's not like the situation would be much different as the speeds increased.

Yes, even with the blower on the M3, it still lacks some torque but its a monster on top end.
The M156 has both top end and loads of torque, add a supercharger into the mix and its a devastating combination.

Btw your hood looks amazing man!!
