I raced my mates 335i tt lastnight on the way to a late dessert in the city. on 17 psi we both took off at 80 km/h and he pretty much launched past me while i was waiting for that turbo to kick in, soon as that happened, straight past him and didn't have a chance.

Also raced a worked s15, he got ahead and when i hit boost in 2nd i started gaining on him then he let the throttle go... don't think he wanted to loose to an 80's car LOL

~20+ psi on e85 will really wake the car up.

I feel like I live in a 3rd world country.

My daily driver is a bone stock 335is with the dual clutch tranny. My 951 has gobs more power at full steam (3 liter at 18psi), though the 335 just scoots at any speed due to the tranny and table-flat torque. From a rolling start over 25-30mph, my 951 would beat it easily, but from a stop light the 335 would sprint to probably 60 or so before the 951 could catch up and fly by.
