No doubt it will be a challenge.
This engine build will make more rwhp than the Hurricane.
We have the 2 mile airstrip rental ready and going for the mph record.
We can dream right. No seriously, it will be fun to give it a go.

We also hope for blistering 1/4 mile times but with the rwhp anticipated there's concern for the SMG and drivetrain/axles on launch.
Time will tell and my checkbook may cry.

Your M3 is serious and will claim many kills.
Run one of the streets gold standards, a Z06. It should be fun.

Best of luck and kill'em out there.

I've heard people saying the e9x M3's have the "wrong compression" for a blower. What does that mean?

MrBails the compression ratio of the new M3 engine is 12:1. The maybe considered to high.
With no internal changes of the engine components question comes up regarding the engine durability.
Forced induction at low boost (5 or 6 psi) maybe considered acceptible with a 12:1 compression engine.

Check about the warranty.

People said the same thing when the E46 M3 came out. They all shut up pretty quickly.
