How quick is a BMW 135i w/Dinan upgrade...
 

well, I can tell you not quicker than a mild modified 951 at 15#'s boost :icon107:

Video or it didnt happen. Just like when you beat those Evo's and that Lexus. ;)

See this is a modified Evo going down to a slow 951.

whatever...knew you'd like it! Uh...he was VERY unhappy :mad:

Good, otherwise I would've said you better not have lost to one of those lil chick cars...:roflmao:

I know I'm gonna get flamed soon...I don't know if it's a chick car but I can tell you his panties were in a wad. :eek:

HAHAHA!!!

Seriously though, video! When Im in Austin this summer Ill come flame you :P

I only believe in 3 kinds of cars: chick cars, gay cars, and MANLY MAN CARS!

I've always wanted to run against a 330xi or whichever car it is that has the twin turboed inline 6 in it (so a 330) because it always seemed like a respectable engine for some get up and go, but it looks like they crammed that same powerplant into the smaller 1 series and it wasn't much of a fight. Good kill!

I ran against a buddies 335XI, he had down pipes, exhaust and a tune. I put a beating on him from a 40mph roll.

yeah...maybe small but a bad chick car. Just researched it...403hp.

Sheesh!

from a dead stop he would have hurt me. We both hit it side by side in first gear through two lanes turning left. When I hit second I put a length+ off my bumper and then third I starting pulling hiim nicely! It would have only gotten worse (for the Dinan of course!).

Against my buddies LS3 Corvette I went down a car and a half from a dig to the 1/4 mile marker. Our cars arent to horrible from a dig if you can get a good launch.

Nice Kill!!!

I raped a C5 off the line in the first 951 I owned with very light mods, his extra horsepower and torque finally caught up to me at around 90 MPH. Of course being stopped on a slight uphill with my RPMs around 3500 and holding the clutch right on the line of catching had something to do with it...

...but we all know whose car was emitting a burnt odor 5 minutes later down the road and in need of a new clutch the next month. The sacrifices made for that one perfect launch (it was PERFECT).

The BMW N54 (earlier 135i, 335i, 535i, etc, with the twin-turbo instead of the twin-scroll single turbo) starts out at 300hp and can be Dinan-tuned to three different levels of power, starting at 360hp, up to 400hp. The 135i is a very heavy car for its size, but with Stage 3 software, that's a lot of acceleration potential (and over a vastly wider RPM range than any 2.5L 951). Did the driver tell you that he had the software, or did it just have a Dinan badge on it (which can mean any combination of Dinan upgrades, not necessarily engine upgrades)?

Either way, if a RWD 6MTX I-6 twin-turbo is a chick car, I don't know what isn't.
