Stage 3 E9X M3 battle - Two S65 built V8 motor Gintani Stage 3 M3's in a roll on race, 12.5 psi versus 16.5 psi

Built motor E9X M3's are referred to usually as Stage 3 and above. In this instance, both cars having built bottom ends with forged internals making for two Stage 3 M3's. The camera car is an E90 M3 running a Vortech YSI at 16.5 psi. The camera car also has a passenger recording. The blue car has 12.5 psi likely from a Vortech T-Trim as this owner opted to re-use the supercharger from his Stage 2 Gintani supercharged setup that was used on the stock motor. Both cars are 6-speed manuals.
In the first run the blue M3 gets a jump but the higher boost car quickly reels it in. In the second race the start is more even and the 16.5 psi car recording simply leaves the 12.5 psi car way behind as it should. It is great to see these cars in action also getting tested in the heat on the road course being driven very, very hard. Expect to see more Stage 3 built motors setups with some big blowers on the road very soon.
