Okay, I started playing around with my 0-60 times and realized I think I know what's up with TGs car, absolutely nothing 
I realized how BIG of a difference temperature can make. I went outside in 77 degree weather and a friend timed my 0-60 to be 6.7(this was without a launch by holding brake and gas pedal at the same time). Then I went out when it was 43 degrees out, I did 0-60 in 6 seconds flat (with launch). Now TG lives in NY... and during the winter, it gets preety cold there. Also, TG has a gruppe m intake which also makes some difference.
Now I don't find anything "rare" about his car. It seems normal to me.
and on a side note, i just beat my friends 1997 328is which goes 0-60 in 6.2 seconds by a two car length.

Now, TG and I both live in California, and right now, California gets preety cold at nights, which is the time when he made that video.

Hopefully once the weather warms up a bit you guys can come up to the Thursday night Nathans car meet in Yonkers. I'd like to check out your rides and maybe have a friendly run or two. I don't care who's car is faster or slower, I just like to see unique cars. Plus, if you guys show up there you'll get into PLENTY of races with japanese, american, and european cars. Later
