M3 was to smooth in its power delivery I like a kick at some point in the revs.they sound great though and are pretty quick.

Welcome along chap! Can I ask ask how does the Ed30 at stage 2 feel against the Evo 8 in terms of performance?


Some very nice motors you've had  :driver:  :happy2:

My evo would leave my m3 for dead mate.had a little more than edition 30.i think a stage 2+ edition 30 would have the edge on a 400bhp evo in a rolling start.i can stay side by side with my mates evo 9 fq360 2nd gear on.and he knows how to drive it.

My mates got a Evo 4 running about 380bhp fully forged engine, custom map etc etc, not had a chance to have a play with him yet but sure i am going to get beat... lol but time will tell..

What stage is your car at mate.just don't race him from standstill he will eat you up lol.thing with evos are they feel faster than they are you feel like your doing 100 when you look your doing 70.with edition 30 you feel like your doing 70 and you really are doing 100.suprised me how quick they can be without much money.with I'd got one earlier.

Only stage 1 at the min so approximately 300bhp ish. Wouldnt even think about it from standing as it has stupid grip, would be going from about 50 in 3rd. Took him out today in mine when we had done my short shift and at top a slip road he said his was going no faster both trying obviously so time will tell...  If get it handed to me will start considering stage 2.. (if can do it without mrs's noticing.. lol..
