Any Xede 335's hit the 1/4 mile??
I understand this isn't a "1/4 mile car", but neither was my 951. And I had to see what it ran!
I'm really curious to see some 1/4 mile times before and after the Xede. Reason being that there are some areas running .4-.6 faster than others. So if I ran a 13.5 here it would probably be a 13.0 in, say, Michigan. I ran into this when I used to drag my Lightning. We'd hit 13.2's with a chip/pulley in Arizona and the East Coast guys were running 12.7's with the exact same mods! So let's see 'em! Post your 1/4 time with/without the Xede!

Keep in mind I ran a 4.8 0-60 in my 335i (manual trans) with 80 miles on the car, in Arizona, in the heat, on a regular road. I can drive. So, no one has hit the 1/4 mile yet????

I think the number of XEDE cars is somewhere around 7-15 max.

As a side note -- did everyone see that >$200k Hartage E92 (w/ a tuned 550HP 10-cyl. engine from the M5)???? They claim is does 0-62mph in 4.4 sec., but what's the big deal since a stock 335i can do 0-60mph in 4.8 sec. and an Xede-equipped 335i can do it in ~ 4.1 - 4.5 sec.??? So, an Xede-equipped 335i is faster than this tuned 550HP 10 cyl. E92??? Unless Hartage is just estimating the numbers (and it's more like 0-62mph in ~ 3.5 sec.), I fail to see why this is so great, especially for >$200,000!!!!
Anyway, I believe Shiv has been estimating that an Xede-equipped 335i should do the 1/4 mi. in mid-high 12 sec. range. :rocks: I would love to know if it's faster than a CTS-V, 300C SRT8, or any other of those V8 power monsters!!!

the hartage e90 is heavy, plus that engine is not really known for being rediculously fast until over 100 mph, then its a beast. Dont get me wrong its pretty damn fast but over 100 it just pulls. I think the hartage car is just a good show car, i mean its pretty cool that they shoved the v10 in the e90. I doubt too many people will actually do that to their car.
BTW the 335 should be as fast as the cts-v 0-60 and the quarter. |

I like to read about 0-60, 60-0, 1/4 mile ET and trap speeds, 0-100, 100-0, 0-150. Of course at the ripe old age of 56 I guess I'm dated too. But don't tell my wife, who is 33.

1/4 mile times are always fun and it's not so much of just a vehicle's performance evaluation, but also the driver's ability.
In the past, I used to think that a good test to see the car's performance was the 0-150-0. However, this test neglects the handling characteristics so laptimes with speed and time check points in a road course is an excellent indicator of a vehicle's overall performance. Wish we all could do a lap on the Nürburgring! |

sdiver68 - unfortunately all I got was the outdated 0-60 times. But 99% of the time that's all I do on the road anyway. The last time I ran the car 0-100 plus MPH was, uhhmmm, no idea. But I'm plannig on hitting the 1/4 mile as soon as I can!! Who knows, maybe I'll be the first stock vs Xede 1/4 mile runs!

I like 1/4 trap speed (versus time) for acceleration because it's much less dependent on the driver's ability to get a great and quick launch. Weedo - No prob, I'm not ripping anyone, I'm just saying the 0-60 differences are getting so small and can be heavily influenced by so many variables other than power, that in order to really gauge differences a longer run is more illustrative. |

The tough part about that is there are exceptions. My 951 with a few goodies was BRUTAL after about 20mph. Before that speed, my Sienna would waste it. I had an '03 Z06 with Heads/Cam/Headers/etc that I couldn't do better than a 12.4 in the 1/4 (here in AZ) but the trap was 118.5mph. I couldn't help but spin the street tires in the first 3 gears and bark 'em in 4th. I think your point is that the 951 and Vette would be brutal on a race course but just couldn't run the 1/4 all that well. Heck, I ran a 12.7 in my Automatic (stall) Camaro SS but at 107mph. :rocks: (notice the mudflap)

As for the lap time discussion, that was mostly agreeing with 2007/335i/coupe's post, but still pointing out a small caveat |
