And also for you guys across the pond its all about 1/4 mile BS. Just because a car is faster in a straight line doesn't mean its a better car. Run a NA S65 against a FI S65 with stock internals over a long period on a track and you'll see who will be in the pits overheating or encountering over issues.
If money isn't an issue then yes you are a retard if you want FI, especially on stock internals!

Of course the 1/4 mile does not make the car. You are telling that to M3 owners who already made the decision to choose a well rounded car. You are telling us what we already know.
The point is the 1/4 mile illustrates power gains quite well. If the strokers really were so powerful don't you think they would have headed out to the strip to show what they could do and compare the results? We don't have a single slip from them.
