Hey guys, I'm kind of new here, bought my frozen black e92 m3 last October. I've done some modifications to it over the winter including AA pulleys, afe intake, vrsf test pipes, a custom tune done locally and rear seat delete. A bunch of other non performance items as well.

Got a chance to do some 0-100 (0-60) runs today. Full bolt on e92 m3 ran 4.6 on 94 pump gas and bone stock 335i on 91 ran 5.35. That 5.35 was by far my best run in the 335i all the others were 5.7 (very consistent car!). M3 was all over the place, did a few sub 5 second runs but most fell around 5.1-5.3.

Interesting to see that after all this work both cars best times were manufacturers suggested times despite the maybe 30 whp gain on a stock m3. Though the speed graph noticeably more linear on the m3.

So my question to you guys is, what can I do to improve the times on the m3. 4.6 is kind of disappointing to me. My launch strategy was mdm mode, everything set to max aggression and just floor it. Manual mode on the 335i with short shifting dominated but I could never get a good up shift on the m3.

I think my next strategy is to go with solid rear subframe bushings, start doing some more weight reduction and switch over to cup 2s or r888r's to improve on the time. Any other suggestions?
