If this 335i will outrun a stock E55(which I don't doubt with the mods and race fuel), it would also outrun a stock M5. Why didn't Gustav show a video of this car against a stock M5 or M3? Everyone knows the 335i's are fast. Everyone here knows Gustav's staged races are biased toward BMW.

Video? E55 must have been heat soaked or had a bad pump if that is the case. Seems like all your videos have the BMWs winning against Mercedes. My own experience shows the stock E55 to be faster than the stock M5, at least at sane speeds.

Shiv/Vishnu just broke the 400whp mark for the N54 the other day. It was done on 98 octane, so not on pump gas, but still pretty impressive. The tuning for the N54 is just getting started.

I used to have an Audi S4 that had 4 programs I could access for my ECU. One was a 100 Octane tune. It made a big difference to put in race fuel and switch to the 100 Octane tune. I wonder how much extra HP & torque the E55 or for that matter an E63 could get with a 98 or 100 octane tune?

I guess it is not possible to have multiple programs on the Mercedes ECU?
