Hey guys. I was just posting to let everyone know that I will be racing a 335 with downpipes, intercooler, Jb4 tune and dual intakes on Sunday morning. What kind of power do these things make? Should I be worried or will I take him easily?

Hammer Down

Go to drag times and see what a 335 with those mods trap that will tell you how you may fair from a roll and also check the et and that will tell you how you will fair from a dig.

I'm screwed...

When we were at famoso the jb3's were all in the 12's. I talked to the guys and they were all very disappointed. Let us know how it goes. Should be close. What is your 1/4 times?

BenzoBoi

Could be interesting...

Good luck and post results!

Fastest jb4 is 11.1 but there are jb4's running 11.7 to 12.5

I looked at some non drag times posts and high 11,s low 12's seem to be the norm.

I ran a 12.3 at infineon. Thanks for the comments guys. I hope I win but my car is running rich right now so I have no idea what the turnout will be. He has a race fuel tune I think too.

Car should make around 385whp and run mid to low 12 @ 112.

If he has meth than he is making around 440whp and will trap 118

That was my previous car and I did love it.

Provided your in gear, not soaked, and none of those jump the gun games that often occurs, then you should get the drop on him up to 90.

Dude i beat a JB4 335i coupe in the 1/4 mile in my C32 with SC Pulley/Intake. You should beat him.

Good luck. The one I having been running traps 125+ and stays door to door with me in roll runs.

335i's are severely underated but a lot of people are getting them...all of my car friends are 335i or 135i's

Until fuel issues are solved on the n54 platform they are maxed out around 500whp

I'd watch out for race gas. Otherwise - smoke him Brian.

Infiniti

I have a couple friends with this set up and I roast them. they are not fast. I only trap 117

Johncy2000

Thanks for the comments guys. It seems that the N54 platform is very potent in terms of responding to mods. 385 whp in a sedan that weighs lighter than the E seems like a lethal weapon. I have confidence in my car though. I am not heat soaked or anything. Car is running the strongest its ever been. Wish me luck guys.

Cant remember the guys user name, but theres a guy that posts here that has had like three 335s.. All of them running like very low 11s.. These thinks are no joke for sure.. 500wph in that car would be very quick, especially awd from a dig.

xtyper

Yes, that's HotRod. He's the guy I've been running against in the post above. His JB4 335i sedan traps 125!

Johncy2000

If I can beat an R8 V10 and a Supra Lexus then I can beat this 335. Lets hope.

E55Dimon

In the end of the day you're in the AMG, he's in a 3-series..

Johncy2000

True that! I see them everywhere its rediculous.

JoshM813

Hotrod only has his sedan now which he pulled an 11.3@131 on vbox recently.

Honestly though what made me get an e55 is the time I got walked by one a week after I set the n54 pump gas and street tire 1/8th record.

Like I said, I miss my 335I but I wanted a big comfortable fast sedan...granted...in warmer weather my 335I would destroy my E now...but in colder weather...it won't happen. I do miss 30+mpg highway though...

Make us proud, Johncy! We are all behind you. Post a video if there's one. Good luck!!

Johncy2000

Video will be taken in HD quality! Look for the video Sunday afternoon! God I hope I win.

Please don't race in M mode and you'll do fine. Good luck and hope the vid turns out nice.

Johncy2000

I always race in M mode. Should I stay in Auto S or Manual S?
