New BMW E9X M3 6MT 60-130 Record for stock internals
Today the weather got pretty good, nice chilly and dry. So I decided to go out for some runs in the M3. Before today, my fastest was 7.85 seconds when I still had my catalytic converters. Since then, I removed the catalytic converters and AJ@ESS has made regular improvements to the factory VT2-625 tune. Just so everybody knows and to avoid any confusion, there's nothing special about the tune I'm running right now. It's the current factory ESS VT2-625 tune in the car and I'm running pump 93 octane.
Weather Conditions:
Temperature: 55 degF
Humidity: 57%
Barometric Pressure: 30.35 inHg
Altitude: 80 Ft.
Density Altitude: -547 Ft.
Run-1:
So now the weather's getting nice and I decided to make some runs. My first run...BOOM...broke my own best time. I hit 7.812 seconds on -2.785% down slope.
Run-2:
Next run out, not only did I break my own best time, I set a new 6MT record. I shaved 0.2 seconds from my earlier time. On this run, I hit 7.636 second on -2.448% down slope.
Run-3
Every run kept getting better and better. My next run, I shaved another few hundreds of a second. This time I hit 7.618 seconds with -2.305 down slope.
Run-4:
I definitely saved the best for last. My forth and final run set another BMW E9x M3 record for stock internals and 6MT. I beat my previous time by more than another 1/10th of a second. This time I hit 7.524 second with -2.333% down slope. It's a new 6MT world record for the BMW E9x M3!
Big Thanks!
I want to give a big shout out to AJ and Roman at ESS. They make kick *** products and gave me the safest fastest tune for any kit on the market. I want to also thank PencilGeek for making the graphs for me and verifying the results.

That's crazy, I can't imagine my E46 M3 that fast, even though HPF make turbo kits which would blow this away there's no matching the low end torque and driveablilty of this. Congrats for truly a BEAST of a car.
