That guys a dick..
...Everyone was shocked by the performance of the 335i with just a JB3 and intakes. I think this weekend is going to be a rematch but maybe I will use 100 octane just to make the Benz guys feel worse.

I'm also doing cooling right now, but SPLIT THE SYSTEMS!!!! I can not believe that ANY tuner would sell you a larger HE and higher capacity pump and say it will do much. If you do not separate, all you do is buy time. Maybe your car will make a single blast without pulling as much timing, but the datalogged IATs I've seen are dramatic between the separated systems and the ones that just have larger HEs. Also, keep in mind that separating means you add HE capacity as well.
My datalogs show over 20 - degree drop in IATs.
The fastest street-tire pass on record shows the rest.

It is a great bandaid, but not a performance mod.

I think if everyone would use IAT degrees over ambient, then we would all be speaking the same language. 20 deg. drop to 70 drop is way to ambiguous.. Advertised numbers are _____ -up as we know.

I would love to see a 70+ degree drop...that means it would be well below ambient temperature in my case, or well above 100% efficiency.
I've only seen that kind of performance out of an ice-packed secondary reservoir setup.
Where my IATs would hit ~165 on the dyno at the top of the pull pre-HE, they go to about 135-140 during a pull now. This is read from the car's OBDII port.
Probe in the intake tube reads from 95-115F pre-Kompressor.

The proper way for a rolling start is... S mode, manually downshift to the right gear(most likely its going to be 2nd), then just let her rip(DO NOT manually upshift, let the computer upshift for you).
Don't lose this time.

I just read through the thread again. I think another problem was the kick-down hesitation when you floored it.

Exactly! If the 335 is in the optimum gear and you guys go for it, while your car is kicking down to a lower gear he is already gone. And your playing catch up. I did notice that 60mph is not that great in 2nd gear (rpms too low). From my testing I have found that 40mph roll in 1st is good. and 75-80mph in 2nd is a killer! I like the keep the rpms up on a rolling start. Let the tranny do the shifting.
Either that or just go from a dig and mutilate him!

The funny thing is that some people here actually believe those results.
