This is way ot but:
Your experience may be different and I'm sure not all 335 develop the problem but it has NOT been solved. Just check e90post how many '08 and '09 still have HPFP failing. Sad but true. 335 is still a fine car though

JB3 for the 335i can offer a gain of up to 80whp on the 335i right now, right? And this tune here can supposedly give similar gains, but who the hell cares? I'm pretty sure you can mod either car to kill the other in a straight line if you really want to and have the cash for it, but that's no reason to buy a car alone... not to me anyways.
Look, the 335i is an incredible performer for the money. And I'm sure the S4 is a great performer, too. So what the hell is with this back and forth nonsense? This adds nothing to the thread, aside from a bit humor.
You know, NewSong, as much as you keep accusing people of being "fanboys" you are making yourself out to be one just the same.

Rep Power: 26 Look, I have a 335i that I am getting bored with and I will most likely replace it with a S4 in the next year or two. They are both amazing cars, but making blanket statements like "S4 > 335" just makes you sound a little fanboy-ish...
Anyways, enough OT

You made a mistake and you were humbled by those with more knowledge. That is nothing to be ashamed of, handle it the proper way.
I take no offense, but I think most people would tell you that you certainly have a lot to learn. It just makes you look worse when you don't even know that you accused two of the most prominent members of the E92 M3 community of not knowing about cars. If you swallowed your pride and admitted you were wrong you might learn something.

Why stoop to petty insults?

I didnt say you were a fanboy. I have seen you post long enough to know that you despise fanboyism, but if you read some of your responses, you did start sounding like one.
Look, I have a 335i that I am getting bored with and I will most likely replace it with a S4 in the next year or two. They are both amazing cars, but making blanket statements like "S4 > 335" just makes you sound a little fanboy-ish...

That's what I expect at E90Post, but it seems like you guys have brought your own form of fanboyism back here. You guys do know that the 335i is about as common as Honda Civics now days, and that it's seen as the "lower brand" on the BMW scale. Why are you guys so protective of it?
You kind of have to wonder, why on the Audi section of this board, BMW fanboys seem to be so vehement in defending their brand in the face of a very capable offering from a competitor.
Do you guys feel inadequate that a competitor is challenging your brand for supremacy? That's kind of sad.

Fanboyism is when someone says "With Vishnu/jb3 my car that I own is faster than the S4, and even if the S4 can be tuned, i highly doubt it can beat my car."
Thats not Fanboyism its truth where are the low 12 second middle 11 second B8 S4's ? Oh I forgot the car barely came out like I said maybe you should wait before you start trolling around making silly assumptions.

The V6SC is out in the S5 cab. It has been out for over a month now. I drove it and I am thoroughly impressed with the 7spd DSG. Lightning quick and blips nicely on the downshifts.
