Manual 545i has longer gears, absurd long gears ... Put the 3.23 gear ratio in 545i and you will destroy stock 335i .

Come on now... we are talking about stock vs stock runs here. Thats like saying ya if i put gears in a 335i I would destroy a stock E39 m5. ( Just an example not trying to stir anything up)

Edit:
Anyone who has ever owned a car with an artificially aspirated 4 or 6 cylinder motor knows about the hole shot problem with a turbo or blower. Sorry folks, v8 takes the holeshot, and those who don't get it, won't get it.
