As for the M3, don't make any major mistakes, like a smokey burnout when you take off, and you'll win easily. Next get a pulley and tune then come back when you beat a E92 M3.

Re: SRT6 Vs M3?
How did the race go? Chuk & I had an M3 chasing us down in our two XF's one night on the way back from a cruise in. I was whipping his butt due to superior driving technique thru some tight turns near our house in the NA. When we got to a straight away he decided to tangle with Chuk in the SRT. His 2 buddies in the car with him were egging him - in a very short distance the M3 driver realized that he overpaid for hp. Chuk said the buddies were busting M3 dude's chops at the next stop light hard core.
The SRT is a sleeper in its own way - most people don't know the difference between the NA & the SRT. Of course as soon as they hear that supercharger whine, a sinking feeling hits their stomach.

Vaya con cuidado , posiblemente el motor 32AMG sea mas poderoso que el 3.2 6L del M3 , pero cuidado porque el bastidor del M3 le aseguro que es considerablemente mejor que el del Crossfire .
No le aconsejo hacer carreteras viradas si no quiere ver como el M3 le da una paliza.

Be careful, possibly the most powerful engine is 32AMG that 3.2 6L of M3, but be careful because the frame of the M3 I assure you that is considerably better than the Crossfire.
Roads do not advise tacking unless you want to see how the M3 gives a beating.

That's the thing about the N54, they need meth or major cooling upgrades if they're pushing more than about 380bhp. There's a reason Dinan will deny warranty coverage on their stage 3 tune which only brings you from about 350bhp to 398bhp.
The N54 is a capable motor, but so was the LT1 once you worked out the problems. From what I've seen it has major cooling and fuel issues that have to be rectified, and even then you need to upgrade the turbos if you plan on pushing more than 400whp, unless you want to run meth everywhere you go.
All in all the fastest no nitrous time for the 135i was set by ACR running 11.5@125. That's nothing to scoff at, but that was a motor where the only thing left stock was the bottom-end and it was on meth. You can achieve 11.5 in the SRT6 with far less.
One last thing, the 6-speed vs the auto, that's what the AMG Speedshift upgrade is for

Re: SRT6 Vs M3?
Was he racing a M3 or a 135? At the end of the day it's a good thing some of those 135's are so quick - you just don't want anyone to see you driving one. The just aren't good looking cars in my opinion & stand out in the BMW line up for all the wrong reasons. Ugly being number 1. I can't help laughing at how goofy looking they are - like a real car that someone chopped bits off of. I would never laugh at a M3 though - that's a serious car. Fast doesn't equal cool by the way. There is a SMART car with a Hayabusa motor in it that is stupid fast but at the end of the day it's still a SMART car.

We cannot touch these cars mod for mod. Its only a matter of time before someone gets a 10 sec run with the stock turbos no nitrous
