Just remembered this; when I did second dyno (Mustang) after installing N55mids and Evolve rear exhaust (which is a very comparable set up to mikewillis 1M) the dyno operator showed me some other results from the same dyno, there was a 2012 E92 M3 with 323 whp and done almost same time with my stock dyno, that was a stock M3 before installing a supercharger at that shop. Mine was 294 whp stock and 301 after exhaust. So, like other posts here I was also within similar range, a mere 22 whp from a 2012 E92 M3. Even the stock 1M was just 29 whp away. There is no way that a 1M is 340 ps crank, if a M3 really makes 420 ps or vice versa, period!

EDIT: Tq difference between stock 1M to stock E9X M3 is huge, literally around 50 to 60 % difference there. However, M3 really has one of the flatest curves I've ever seen.
