2015 BMW M4 with a mild tune - 11.52 @ 120 - not bad for an inline 6

That sounds so terrible. WOT sounds like a 60 degree GM V6. 2.8/3.1 with the muffler hanging off.
Moving out for just a tune, but it does sound bad...
I lime how you say "not bad for an inline 6"... inline sixes are known for making insane power... all of them lol.
This is true, but I have a feeling he meant more along the lines of not bad for being a 6 cylinder.
Arguably the best engine layout on the planet: Check. One of the best engine manufacturers on the planet: Check. Boosted from the factory and just asking for a more aggressive tune: Check.
Sounds like the perfect recipe for fast.

Faster than my dd. I like.
Pretty sure these have been posted for some time now. Trap speed looks a tad bit low
hard to see on an iphone...did it pull a 1.78 60ft on stock tires?
moves for sure but good lord it sounds like someone farting through a trumpet
Not bad for an inline 6 with twin turbos. See now it doesn't sound as impressive does it?
Two very small turbos making 19psi on a 3.0. Still impressive. Not quite 2JZ levels of impressive but it is still pretty damned good.
Moves but sounds bad. A guy just picked up an m4 in my complex and it's got some aftermarket exhaust that probably cost 2500-3k and sounds so damn bad. Reminds me of a soup can on a Honda. Damn thing shifts fast though and looks killer.
A good exhaust on my E36 costs around $1100 or so...so yeah, $3k for a new M4 sounds about right. Lol. Parts costs are the biggest reason I quit modding BMW's and bought a fox body.
Yeah and the 2JZ is what? 20+ year technology? I'm honestly not impressed. You can make anything go fast with a couple turbos. Regardless if theyre small, take them off and see how it runs na. I just would of expected more out of it.
It's quick for sure, but I gotta say I'm not impressed, either. Nineteen pounds of boost is a lot. At least it is for supercharged cars. Maybe that's low boost for a turbo. :shrug: How much power is it making?
Larger engines require less boost to make similar power. That is a lot of boost on a big V8 or V10, not really a lot on a small I6. Think about how much boost it will take a Honda 4 banger to make 400 at the tires.
Not sure who did the tune on this particular car but they make around 425 off the showroom floor. (However there are reports of bone stock cars making close to that at the wheels once they get put on the dyno.)
Too bad that recipe doesn't include reliability. They're worse than a turbo rotary. Which brings me back to your second point. They are NOT one of the best manufacturers on the planet. I've yet to see ANY BMW go more than two years since assembly without an oil leak,
^^^ How many BMWs have you seen that haven't gone "more than two years since assembly without an oil leak"?
I like this 2015 M4 a lot. A couple of guys here own one.

Funny...my M3 never leaked oil. Burned some, sure, but that was expected of the M50 series of motors. 325is was the same way.

BMW is well known for a few things. 1) Great handling. 2) Great motors. 3) Being driven by assholes.
