    Surprised a z06? How exactly? You would need alot more then a chip to keep up with a zo6.

    I also want to know how the 240 rwhp 3000 lb car beats the 400 rwhp 3000 lb car. Turbo the E36 and you can have 400 rwhp or more to race fast cars, though there is truth to the old saying that there is always someone faster somewhere that you might encounter with your fast car.

    He has some mods so I gave him the benefit of some rwhp.

    I have a hard time believing the 944 (951) had 400whp as well. Those motors don't breathe well (8v) head, you need A LOT of work to make 400whp, 400bhp seems more appropriate which is still quite a bit for a car that light.

    I think we're all assuming that but it wouldnt matter. Even a c5 zo6 is out of a N/A e36 m3's league.

    I think my N/A setup could've held its own. But for 99% of N/A e36's, you'd be correct

    it was not a z06 found the owner a month ago. I held my own against his cammed ls1.
    yes dad"s 944 turbo (951) has about 400wp, it is well done to say the least. cams bigger turbo, solid lifter conversion, Lindsey racing 340 hp kit, added more modifications to highly surpass that. he wont put the d*** thing on the dyno though.

    P.S. I look like a d*** amateur with this post wow I have learned so much in the past few months.
    I raced an rb25det swapped 240sx hatch with a z3m coupe, I had him at a 40 roll until 5th then his turbo showed why N/A usually doesn't win....

    also I have read the rules and wow please do not TO me..... I am working on this whole forum thing... send me a message if you would like....

    Very confused by this. S50's are OBD1 and having started production in 1996 all Z3's are OBD2. You can not run an OBD1 engine in an OBD2 on the street car so why not just use an S52 to start with? It's really just a bigger displacement OBD2 S50 after all.
