neither

you should get an ess 535 kit for 8K (9k installed), then put the rest of the money towards paying off the car. no reason to have more than the 535 if you are just cruising on the streets. the car will rip and be plenty fast enough. the 535 is the best bang for the buck for sure.

and unless you are tracking in hot weather, i wouldnt worry about needing an intercooler. and i may even consider running a 91 octane tune and using 93 octane fuel on the track just to give you that extra margin for error.

my car makes 400whp (turbo M car, not an m3) and is not quite as fast as a DCT 535 (very close) and my car is WAY too fast for the street and really even too fast at the track. its fun as hell though
