CBRD is a great shop. Its like walking into a hospital it was so clean.

From my understanding and talking to a few people who ran the dyno there they claimed that the dyno is very low reading. So much so that it is less than the mustang at buschur racing.



I feel guilty because I was being such a douche earlier, but I was trying to not be biased. I know I am an evo owner, I own a E90 as well, and was planning to purchase either an E92 m3 or a new 1m next year. BUT, I am still thinking that over.

Both cars are great, they are just 2 total different machines, and do 2 total different things.

The M3 truly is a track monster, and looks great too. I think the price is a tad inflated and that similar performance can be had for half the price, but at the cost of losing the luxury stand point.

At this point I am going to step down from the argument and try to salvage my rep here lol.

have a merry xmas all
