thats on a 2000 so i guess its possible but its still a 6 and i just dont see it just dont miss a gear and you should be good and it weights more then our cars so i wouldnt sweat it just race him and see what happens

**sscamaro22** · 01-21-2008, 11:04 AM

**sscamaro22** · 01-21-2008, 11:05 AM

aight thanks man ill let you know

**basballny2** · 01-21-2008, 11:05 AM

268 TQ ouchh..... race from a low roll, say around 10-15 mph

**ultra_badass** · 01-21-2008, 11:14 AM

im pretty sure that all that info is to the flywheel not the rear so the TQ is going to be super low and the hp will be around ours but whats HP with no TQ

**hutch1999** · 01-21-2008, 01:11 PM

might be a pretty tough race good luck. The chip has has prolly just takes the speed limiter off.

**basballny2** · 01-21-2008, 02:30 PM

Guys, that M3 is not an easy kill (any newer than the 90's). They grab pretty good, they come w/ some pretty wide tires & have some power to em. Don't be lead to believe it's gonna be like your racing against a stock Civic or something...

You an A4 or M6?

oh im definitly NOT saying that at all.....we do have a slight edge though especially up top

**basballny2** · 01-21-2008, 04:26 PM

due to the wide tires/traction i said to go from a 10-15 mph roll, low enough that his tourque will still be shit but just enough to get you going with some good traction

**sscamaro22** · 01-21-2008, 05:03 PM

M6 so I should have him off the line

**nhrabracketracer** · 01-21-2008, 09:38 PM

50 Horses of a chip? C'mon...maybe 10 at most but not 50. I think as long as you leave good and dont spin hes yours unless hes hiding something
