e30 M3 vs Supercharged Porsche C4S on track (VIDEO)

[m325ix]

lol... It sounds great but in reality just a track day at Pocono with BMW SCCA (hence the instructor and pointers for passing - it's all about safety)

Just happened that we were on the track together and had a little fun with each other. Both of us were surprised - he could not believe e30 M3 could hang with his supercharged 600HP C4S (he did not know about the Euro S50B32 under the hood), I could not believe I could not pull on him faster (I did not know it was supercharged), so all in all, lots of FUN! Ohhhh.. and the Porsche was on R-Comp tires.

Video is a little corny, just an amature attempt, so excuse the imprefections.
I taped it to watch and learn my mistakes but decided to share because it looks like you guys may enjoy it 2!

Here is the dyno graph, 330HP to the wheels



the labor to swap this motor into the e30 is $2500, about $3000 for all the misc parts needed for this conversion (brand new from the dealer), you can go cheaper with used parts...

motors and 6 speed boxes available from www.abloriginalparts.com <== highly recomended !

here is the supercharger on the C4S

The EVO Supercharged cars are 470hp, not 600hp(don't know what he told you). http://www.evoms.com/porsche%20ec%20art%20test.htm
