Thats what it mostly bears down to - especially with German car fans. They're either a VAG fan, BMW fan or Merc fan and the majority don't really deviate at all! (not criticising, just stating, so not a comment towards anyone in this thread haha)!

BMW and VW man here ! ^^^^^^^^^^^

problem i have now is what the hell do i go for now ???? :happy2:

Why are you saying that the ZM has more torque i thought that you had a remap on the s3 ! If the ZM makes more torque than your s3 id be taking it back and telling them to get it sorted you should be at least 50lbft up on a Z4m.
Also saying that one of the sh*ttest sounding petrol engines ever made sounds better than a straight 6 M engine is bloody bonkers ! even if you have a miltek it still isnt a patch on the M tunes IMO, Infact im sure your probably one of the only people in the world who think this !
Not getting at you mate, its just that someone on the forum is looking at buying one, and wanted to make sure he had the correct information
:happy2:

i must be unique then pal cause the M noise did nt do that much for me , dont know about the torque figures but the z4m felt like it had more grunt , 1st gear is nt needed ! what car do you drive pal ?
gobbleplease:
GTI
ive had two M3s previous though, i cant remember of the top of my head but the S54 (m3 Z4M Powerplant) makes roughly 264lbft and i would of expected a mapped s3 to make over 300.
candy turbo:
i agree my s3 should be 300 + torque must just be how the car feels difference between big 6 and 2.0 turbo, the s3 is fine pal been giving it a work out on some good b roads today and trust me the custom code is spot on
