Wouldn't mind either way tbh.. Would still make for an interesting comparison I reckon..
Let's not forget the 1M won't get the same gains from software.. Still want one though.. lol |

I actually fooled around with a 1M recently but I'll be honest, it wasn't a fair race as I have bolt ons and I am assuming he was stock. The guy was being all cocky and thinking just because its a 1M it was going to destroy my lowly 135i, but lol...
Not my video, but the outcome was the same for me as I have similar mods. |

agreed. I could care less if dct, dsg; etc are faster by .5 seconds. My sports cars will always be manual. My DD can be auto. But I could care less if its dct or older stepronic. My GTI is dsg, yes it shifts very fast but i don't care. For my DD it doesn't matter how much quicker it shifts.

http://www.bimmerfile.com/2011/05/26...rs/#more-12643 Conclusion is based off of vehicles of similar weight with one having a 16% hp and 24% torque advantage and larger tires. What's your conclusion? |

but all the comparisons have been 1m vs. Modded 135. So obviously the 135 should win in a straight line regardless of transmission choice. We can't make a conclusion until someone with a stock 135i dsg races a stock 1M.

All I know is my 1M will have my JB4 installed within 30 minutes after getting it back from the break-in oil change.
I also happen to have a stealthy meth kit laying around..... |

It looked like he was out for a Sunday stroll, then moved to right lane when some douche was on his ass. If he was really racing, then why would he move to the right after passing the truck.
