The guy can't drive. I had a 335i walk me in my 05. And I stay closer than that 335i to a stock 5.0

Idk what to tell you, not his first rodeo. It's also an auto, nothing much to it.

What did you know about that 335 though? All it takes is a tune to boost the turbos and they gain a lot of power. Stock for stock they should run pretty even with a 3v. It did seem a little slow in that video, but I haven't experienced the mighty 5.0 much, haha.

Not surprised by the outcome, he would need at least a tune to make it interesting. Stock they are not that quick compared to the new 5.0's.
