Where do you live, I want to check this thing out sometime
Look up Ulysses aka Cardcounter on bimmerforums or youtube. He was running 10's in a 328i sedan with stock internals, full interior, etc. The only thing different looking from stock cosmetically is Kosei K1's, lowered, and a cf hood. After months of daily driving it at 600+whp he stuck it on a dyno for a day until they reached 704whp and bent a rod. He already had another engine he was working on, completely built M52 and runs 9's pushing 996whp.

He babies it off the line because the car hooks and breaks things, plus e36's (& e46's) are well known for ripping the subframes out of the floor. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...92940614601810

New engine, 9.93 @152 mph

I'll be happy with 360 whp at 10-12psi in a sub 2,400 lb. car. That's still probably 100hp too much for that car on a road course I'm in the Gwinnett area but it's still far from anything pretty to look at. Trying to get motivated to go down and pull the M10 out of my car now!
