I would expect 530 wheel on the E92 @ 5.5 psi, if not more. 5.5 psi is fine even on piss 91 octane.

IIRC, the very first kit that AA produced, which was the "first s/c kit for the E46 M3" was less than 400whp. AA's kit was right on par with Dinan's S3-M3. I believe the next gen was the one that broke the 400whp mark.
I'd have to go searching through my stacks of magazines to find out for sure though.
Either way, I'm a dork for remember this useless info.
Now that I think about it, maybe these E9X kits will cost more. I don't think as many people will feel a need to upgrade from only 414hp. Therefore, companies will have to charge more money per kit to recoup R&D costs.
On the other hand, I'm getting the feeling that there are a lot more E9X M3s on the road than E46 M3s at the same point in their lifecycles.
But who knows for sure until someone releases pricing. Again, can't wait to see when VF finished their kit!
