m3 e46 vs trans am
I was the passenger in the F-Body (1/2 T/A conversion, not yet complete) The Cars: 2003 M3, Manual trans -K&N drop in -B&B Tri-Flow 1994 Firebird Formula LT-1 -Comp Cam (mild street cam) -Crane 1.6 rockers -Comp beehive (918 for you GM guys) valvesprings -BBK shorty headers -Dented (30% crushed?) y-pipe -Borla exhaust with open cutout -Ram Air w/ K&N and Lid -Edelbrock TB -MSD Opti and Coil -Bottom end unknown -Head details unknown (assuming stock) -12k miles on motor, 2k on trans -Performabuilt 4l60e (auto 4 speed) -3.73 gears -6500 RPM shift points -tuned by PCM For Less or WAIT4ME (i dont recall, both are email tunes) Now, id like to start off by saying that the T/A has an exhaust thats far less than ideal, due to some asphalt crushing the y pipe as well as a spark plug wire that could be arcing onto the exhaust (sometimes it does, sometimes not). Long tubes and 3" true duals, as well as a set of heads and a small N20 shot are planned soon. The T/A is running 265/40/18 toyo T1R street tires, limiting the power braking to about 1500rpm before they spin (car has a 3k stall when on the drag radials, and went 12.9@1xx on DRs before the new cam). The T/A had 3/4 a tank of gas, subs, amp, and various crap everywhere (various crap = a gallon of antifreeze, textbooks, a flower pot, to name a few items). The M had 1/8 a tank of gas, no issues that would slow it down, and less crap everywhere. The first run was not recorded and yielded an even launch, in 2nd the T/A pulled 3/4 car and held it until both drivers lifted at about 125 MPH. Here are the runs that followed:
