Well, we are talking about the E9X which it makes it correct.

There are not a number of M3's making over 1000 rwhp, you are thinking of turbo E46's and you are incorrect. The HPF Stage 4 has not hit 4 figure yet the only car supposedly there is Taza's.

Tranny holds it just find but would overheat after a burnout on the dragstrip with the SC. I now have a custom transmission cooler.

SMG and DCT are two completely different worlds.

Where is the G-power SKII's dyno at the wheels? G-power has blown a lot of motors and they pretty much just give a press release for everything the moment it comes out with rarely any results to back it up, certainly no timeslips.

I was just about to say the same thing... Your car is also a DCT.

Hmm, the fastest overall M3 in the US is the Maximum PSI car and I haven't seen a number of them making over 1000... I don't believe a single one has.

I'm sure there are some abroad as there are some very fast BMW's over in Europe but I do not follow that scene closely.
