The best of the BMW's is (in terms of acceleration) are the turbo e30's. I'd like to see a 1,500 AWHP e30 325xi weighing 2,200 lbs.
e30 with 1500 hp would be fun to see indeed.

Per your comments of "modded properly" and "engine fairly stock" for tracking, would you say it's not a good idea or not "optimal" to track a M3 w/ a supercharger in general?
