New Owner.some thoughts
sup guys, i got my coupe about 2 weeks ago and im really happy with it and it is a lot faster than my old eclipse gs(140horses)lol! kinda of a big upgrade..anyway i was driving around and came across an e46 m3 n decided to to fly by him..knowing wat his reaction would be,,he got right on my behind and allthough i didnt really push the car he seemed a lot faster than me..to make a long story short, i kno these things have been discussed previously and m3's are considerably quicker, but what would it take to keep up with them without going turbo or sc? thanks in advance (newbie here..im sure u can tell)

black on black i got an 06 g35C 5AT black on black too well let me tell you ive raced 2 of my friends m3s and you wont touch them. with basic bolt ons ill tell you how i do. this weekend im getting my car chipped and getting a INJEN CAI or a Z-Tube/JWT POP-CHARGER combo. if you really wanna get close dont play with them from a dig or brake torque and you should get a little jump. your best bet to getting closer to the m3 in the order of what you should get first 1.intake 2.chip (IMO) 3.spacers 3. test pipes
