Yeah that E55 doesnt even look like its launching hard even when he's getting the punch. I'm going to guess ESP interference, an E55 with a Weistec blower should spin its way up to 100, this E55 from low gear looks sluggish on the pick up. I spin to 80 these days and aren't close to pushing Weistec numbers yet. I call BS on this vid.

It looks like the Weistec blower in that E55 is still the original packaging and being carried home in the trunk.

Install it on the engine and see where that M3 ends up.

Looks like that Weistec put a hurting on it. Highly doubt the E55 had the weistec blower.

A Weistec tuned E55 and not a Weistec supercharged E55 makes a lot more sense.

Yeah I saw that, as you see my comment on it. It just seems hard to believe that the car would get beat though. Especially when you have video of pullied E55 running ESS 535 and 600 (and a 625) supercharged M3 with close results so the Weistec should obviously not lose especially the way it did.

....any independent dyno of an m11k car with Weistec s/c yet? Dyno that not performed by Weistec and had zero Weistec involvement in the dyno. If so, post graphs. Thanks

Just a little update.

I took a drive from Southern MD out to the Eastern Shore this morning. About 160 miles round trip. Not really highway driving at all and the traffic through Annapolis sucks on Saturday mornings.

Anyway, the dash fuel economy function showed 22.3 MPG and my math showed 21.5 MPG.

There was one full power blast on the trip to loose an irritating BMW driver. I do not think he was expecting that level of acceleration from the 4 door sedan.
