the m engine is pretty crazy. if the m3 was still n/a with lots of bolt ones, then a modded s4 would take it, with turbos done and everything. if u turbo an m3, or even supercharge it, the s4 would have to be really done up to keep up/beat the m3

When I was Stg2+ I raced an M3 up to about 140, he started about 2 cars ahead, and by 140 I had passed him. With a chip and exhaust you should be faster

ur compairing to stock again, u prolly raced a stock m3. not sure bout the specs on the s/c'd, but thats just 1 way to go, u can still turbo charge the engine and see 500-600 hp. i was reading somewhere that they got the M coupe roadster (m version of the z3) to 700+hp.

also just because you can get 700hp supposedly out of the Z3 doesnt mean you can get 500-600hp out of the M3s engine. the supercharged ones from AA are around 420hp at the crank, and supposedly there is a 500hp M3 CSL in europe, but there aren't many aorund here with that much HP, if any at all.

Well... I got silly again. This time with a late model 'vette. Obvi not the latest, but I smoked that guy. PROBABLY WENT BACK TO THE DEALER, AND TRADED IT IN. I love the stealth nature of the chipped Audi... Live close to Paul Newman, and I'm told he had a souped up Volvo 240 (dropped in a V8) that got him his jollies. I personally like anything with a silly wing, or a tomato can exhaust. But then, I'm silly...
