I was bored at work and a fellow co-worker just got a 335 so i was doing some reaserch for him on posible mods and came across this. I had no idea the 335 with a chip could get this close to hanging. this brings up a question... what would the 535i do to the m5 on a similar chip...

Most of the 335is that are barely hanging with M5s have more than just a PROcede or Xcede "chip." In conjunction to the "chip", they may have cat-back or cat-less exhaust, down pipes, or FMIC.

was that 400 hp mode or 500 ??
ummm if i had to guess i would say p500... there's no way any M5 owner would be that close to a 335i and stay in p400....
