was that a E46 you killed, or a E36. yeah, those M3's are good stock. if he had a chip, you guy's would have stayed side by side. Also, next, try racing a coupe ///M3, then you'll be in the battle of your life, lol. how much HP U running in your FD3S. Also, you know the Conv. is also heavier and less aerodynamic than the Coupe model E46 M3

They can barely edge out a bone stock 5 speed FD. I have raced a dozen of them and they always give me really tough runs because my car is close to stock and automatic (!!!!) The new M3 is rated at 333 hp, weighs hundreds of pounds more than the last 240 hp high 14 second M3 model (those are a freaking joke period).
My best friend raced a 97 M3 with K&N and chip and he lost by 1 car, he was running 7 psi at the time in his automatic...... I have beaten the crap out of a brand new M3 (2004) with bolt ons in my 95 R2 with only intake and downpipe. Sure he was convertibe, but it was a brand new stickshift with bolt-ons and hello I have a 95 with only intake and downpipe......Sorry to ramble on, but how is a 13 second tank a "battle of your life" for a bolt-on FD deep in the 12s??? Did you guys see those headlights falling back faster in each gear? Hmmm, even the renesis beat the M3 engine for 2003 motor of the year (should they have even been in the same class considering the displacement?) Ok I'm done, I don't mean to offend bimmer lovers but I think your comment was inaccurate. Peace

And one more thing, you sure a mere chip would have regained those 5 cars for the ////////////M3? LOL I think maybe a chip and a 100 shot. Well they are nice cars regardless. Take it easy

Kid, m3s dont hand a candle to a modded FD, despite what your dad may say when he is looking through his "motor trend" and etc. or even driving his own.
even despite what the beamer guys may say.
