No, no... I’m more than happy with my simple tune. But some people have already upgraded the S58 turbos to pull 800+ hp.
That's a monster engine.

Can't wait for the track in NH to open up. Love a Friday night at the track and can't wait to see what my X3MC can do.

Going to be the modern day Evo. Lighter and better aero than an X3M I bet the new M3 will touch 9's with bolt on's...rather easily I bet as well. This is 911TT territory.

Let's not say EVO. Let's hope the German GTR. It's gonna be very interesting for sure.

At this rate you X3M guys are going to figure out the S58 Achilles heel before the G80 even hits the showroom.

Wonder what it will be this time...

If you want to do meth injection, then by all means go for it.

Keep in mind myself and a few others have gone faster than this with stock DP’s and no meth, just a custom E70 or E85 tune.

The interesting part to me is that he is back halfing the same as you. Granted you may get quicker by adding down pipes, but still a hell of a setup. He just needs to analyze the 1/8th to see what's going on there to get more power.

I don't want to daily e85 and dry my injectors. Also Miami IAT drop will give me a massive pro. Meth is way more dailyable than e85. I did e60 + meth tune on b58 and ethanol was always the biggest pain, even with many local stations.

The original poster was running E50 + the methanol, so its not like you get that performance from 98 and meth.

Each to their own, but I run a 98 tune 90% of the time then switch over to E70 when I want to do some roll racing, a track day or have some fun elsewhere.

Understand everyone's situation is different, I'm fortunate to have E85 within 500m of work and 5 min from home.
