As Colin told you in another thread, you really don't need a TVS to beat M3's...
I've surprised more than one E90/E92 when they can't pull away from me...yes they have 400+ so obviously I can't beat one, but they cannot escape at least...and I don't even have a head! With another 30-40hp from a head...it wouldn't be an issue.
E46's on the other hand, they're no problem

Anyways, I am glad to hear about TVS revival topic.
I don't think it would be good on the strip....The tq would just make the tires spin for days....
I have that problem launching the car at 3-4000 RPM already! Cant wait to see the distructive force this thing is going to have on my tires.
Lol, I had a issue on the stock M45 with a OSG diff at the track. It finally caught traction in third.....I was even in the cut....So with a TVS/or even a sprintrex I could only imagine what it would do.

ThumperGP, BMW 335/M3 fanboys think they are driving the "Ultimate Driving Machine". They are making fun of everyone else cars and they are fast than anything. Here is the BMW crowd in Montréal. I just want to be sure I could have an engine setup (in near future, next year or the other one) to shut off their mouth once for all. Those fanboys are like poison. Here is an example: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=399896

Lol I work at a BMW dealer and see it all day long...the 335 guys are the worst
RE: TVS900 Basics - Shanne - 07-13-2012 08:32 PM
Those BMW guys are tools. Its not twin scrolls its twin scroll. its not plural.
Any one of them can line up next to my EVO, hell we can go from a roll if they wanted. Their M3's racing my EVO would look like a Justa racing a ZR1 vette.

Funny, little things like that bother me too. Like when people with I4's say they want some "headers".....uh, you mean a header? Or "rims" which is actually defined as *The circular outer part of a wheel, furthest from the axle*....hence, one might want new wheels, not new rims....
OK, climbing down off my soapbox.....nothing to look at here
