My 135i vs. CTS-V, GT500, Viper ACR, 335i, C5 Z06, S6, etc.

I was at the NoFlyZone Midwest event this past weekend. Got almost 25 passes in. The first day was rained out, but we got a few solo runs. Going 146mph in the rain is... interesting. The second day was awesome and I was able to clock a 156.79 MPH run.

Here is a compilation video of some cars I was able to run.

It was a blast. I beat the crap out of the car without a hiccup and then drove 5 hours back home.

Right! That 335i was no joke. Bigger twins, inlets, E85, etc. That thing was quick.

that's awesome how long have you been pushing 20psi on the stockers.

Not for very long, but they don't seem to have a problem with it. Ever since installing the inlets this winter. I push the car hard and it puts up with it just fine.

Found this video as well.

impressive!! what's the specs on your wheel and tire setup?

[jmz135]

Awesome vids man, it's nice to see comparisons vs other modded cars on a strip when you can really let loose. I was really surprised by the S8 - it seemed like he was really pulling away but then fell flat.

Are you still on the stock diff? Surprised you don't have issues putting down that kind of power without an lsd.

Yeah, he got the jump. It's a much harder race when you're chasing, but still a very impressive car.

I'm still on the stock diff. It's a much different story from a dig, but rolling into it at 40+ mph isn't too bad. An LSD is next on my to-do list though.

1. Your tire+wheel fitment looks awesome.
2. I like the door panel splitters a ton.

[Cmoney135i]

Have you put your car on a dyno yet? I'd love to see the numbers you put down. Inspiration for my car!

[ryanb122]

Awesome videos! What side skirts are those?

i'd say he's at least 450-480whp.

[pepper135I]

Great kills, she looks beautiful and runs even better ! Are you running a custom map 6for 20psi or just the e85 BEF in map 7 ?? Also wondering were you using no lift shift ? awesome 1er once again

Thanks man, I'm really happy with the way the car sits. It's been a long time coming.

I did, but it kept spinning tire in 4th gear. They ended up having to ease into the throttle, so I don't think I got accurate numbers. I'd like to go back with these new tires.

Yeah, I'd guess higher 400s. My friends that were at the dyno day and at the 1/2 mile event agree. You can see the spike in the dyno graph when they eased off the throttle. I just gave the car new injectors, coils, plugs, and a walnut blast. She's running strong and smooth.

Thanks! I do have a custom map 6 that targets 22psi, but for this I was just running the E85 BEF in map 7. I don't have the NLS or 2-step installed yet, but it's on my to-do list. I have the relay, just no time to install.

why Michelin a/s in the front and mpss in the rear?

Because I originally had the A/S 3s all around but chewed through the rears pretty quick. Replaced them with PSS tires for better grip. Now the fronts and rears will probably wear out around the same time.

Awesome! I actually don't like the nls too much, It shudders sometimes. In the year I've had it, only NLS 3-4 times. She looks great! Can't wait to try a 20 psi when my fuel pump arrives. Currently just using the race BEF 😔

[benzosnenzos]

This car is legendary! So unbelievably fast. I have been bone stock forever and am too scared to modify this car. I can't imagine what 500+BhP, let alone 350!? Some serious kills in that video.

Yeah, I've heard of issues with the NLS and 2-step. That's half the reason I've been so lazy about installing it.

It's a blast to drive. Once you start modding, you're hooked!
