Night and day compared to a stock M42 or M44 even. It is argued that the vehicle will drive more similar to an M3 in terms of power. And quite possibly a little quicker. I have never driven an M3, So I couldnt tell you how the difference feels. Im sure the M3 has more torque. But the DASC top end is like "seee ya later". As an owner, I couldnt disagree. Im planning on eventually upgrading to a smaller pulley and other things you can do to get more boost. If you get a deal on it, it would be totally worth the money. Most would argue just to buy a bigger motor and do a swap if your going to fork out a few thousand. But some have a thrill for making 4 cylinders go really fast! There is a ton of info on this very site, do your homework and make the decision thats best for you. I am totally happy with mine! Good luck __________________ 1998'SportR.I.P. 1995 Sport AlpineIII |
