StinkyM replied to the thread Who has the strongest turbo E46 M3 on BimmerBoost?.

" This may actually be a great race. The dct will pull down low for sure. But once the m3 gets that boost hitting in a good gear, it's going to reel him in quickly. The benefit is sticky has that damn dct and a blower which will give him a solid jump on the hit. "

I still prefer to row but I know it is slower.

Lots of data available for you Stinky to mull over from the same cars. From fully built T56 magnum rowers versus a Th350/400 (GT500 mustangs, Camaros etc) in the same car to stock 6mt versus a powerglide/th400 setup (2JZ Supras). Mustang, Corvette, Camaro and Supra worlds have had a couple of decades teasing out the differences.

The data I used to see was merely 60 ft times and 1/8 mile trap speeds when I first got into this debate (mid 90's). Lucky for you,
Vbox logs are EVERYWHERE these days.

Lol. I had to re read what you said originally. My bad I'm tired. Loooooong day. As far as data goes I was just talking in terms of smg vs manual. "

I am a manual guy myself but I understand its limitations.

Add boost and it is really not fair as the auto holds the boost and maintains higher g's between each gear.

Not to disagree with you, but when it comes to a trans like the th series or a dct, then yes its not possible to beat rowing manually. The smg 2 is lazy, slow, and extremely outdated not to mention apples to oranges when compared to the dct. I would love to see shift data vs a manual. I have a vbox so soon enough I will be able to log my shifts for comparison. "

" Awesome numbers. Really pushing the limits now. Gintani definitely has and will continue to have my upmost respect. Incredible builds come from that shop. Congratulations to you and gintani. Question here though, will they produce a ysi kit now or is this simply just a one off build? "

Exactly. Or for $30 you can have a modified CDV or clutch delay valve, so there is no delay in shifts. I shift quicker than an smg trans. I've driven 3 different smgs and have raced a friend in his. Although he didn't have the csl software when we ran. "

Im trying to find a parts breakdown to see if I have the bolts and necessary hardware. Do you have the stock intake on your car? I believe there's 4 bolts that hold the box in place but my afe has 4 but possibly in a different location. I'm not sure though because my car never had the factory intake. Just afe stage 1 and now the stage 2. "

I don't need the entire plenum. Just need the air box the filter sits in, all the mounting hardware to install the factory air box, and that's it. I already have the elbow, I can reuse the one from my afe, and a new filter as well. "
