M3 goes down, Driver cries!!! tonight at 10.

My parents went out to a sort of christmas party thing yesterday afternoon. Well the Supercharged Jeep was just sitting there taunting me, so I started driving around looking for races. Picked up my friend Matt, and fucked around with a few Civics but nothing fun. Finally I was on Westchester Ave and there was some M3 with his friend in the car who was speeding around. Caught up to him and finally got an open light. I look at him and laugh and point at him telling him your going down. He gives me this yeah right please sort of look and laughs. Light turns green he has to deal with his manual spins the tires a bit, my 4wd grips the road nicely and Snaps my neck back and at 40mph i'm more than a car ahead hahahah. then by 75mph I shut it off about 10-15ft ahead of him. HAHAH he looked at me and shook his head smiling, and sped off. I beat his ass. Man must suck to drive around in your M3 and have a Jeep beat you. If only he knew what was under the hood. BTW it was a blue last model M3.

My sis has a V8 Limited...even w/o the SC, that thing can shock a lot of people off the line. I love the torque in that thing. it does however seem to run out of steam at about 60 or so. does the SC help a lot on the high end too? how much does a set-up like that cost?

Yeah they are great SUVs, I love them. I want one of my own. I think Kenne Bell chargers $4,800 for the kit then couple hundred for shipping, the ECU upgrade was $500 and my dad did some other work to it too. He installed the supercharger himself, otherwise it is like $2gs to install or something. Yeah it improves top end so much. It loses some power at 42mph and a lot of power at 70mph. The sickest number is 0-40mph in 2.7 secs
It feels insane,
Here are the updated numbers after the new Computer upgrade from Kenne Belle.
0-30--> 1.7
0-40--> 2.7
0-50--> 4.0
0-60--> 5.4
0-70--> 7.1
0-80--> 9.6
0-90--> 12.1
0-100--> 14.8
1/4 14.0 @97 mph

Fucking thing is sick, but it does lose power after 70. But hey stock 0-100 is like 19, and stock 0-60 is 7.2 so it improves a lot high end.

that thing is a total sleeper until you hit the gas. i saw a stoplight race one time between a guy w/ an SC'd durango R/T 5.9L (same engine as the previous gen special edition Jeep 5.9) and a prelude. that thing just took off so bad...it sounded like a jet (the sc whine). It's just sick that a big ass jeep can haul ass like that. those #s remind me of the old GMC Tyhphoons. those things were monsters.

Yep I have a 5.9 it is up in Killington, VT right now. That thing was so much fun to drive around in. Jumped on everything. Those GMCs were POS though. The Jeep still has luxury and is comfortable and looks sweet IMO. The SC whine is insane

Nice Kill PGA. I know that I'd be amazed getting blown away by an SUV.
