My coworker's friend has a supercharged Phoenix Gold M3 with around 550HP! I got to take a ride in it today, and OH MY GOD!

Good news for all of you is, he's selling it soon. Putting it on ebay when it's ready.

I wish I had had my camera with me today at work so I could have snapped some pictures... It was DECENT! If I ever see it again before he sells it, I'll def. take some pictures and post them.

[burnout] all gears

I'll ask his friend my coworker today. All I know is that it was fuggin' huge! It had like 4 intake ports into the engine (both about 1.5" - 2" in diam.). Like I said, I wish I could have gotten some pictures! But yea, I'll be sure to get all the details today.

Yea, this is the second supercharger so far. I think it won't last, not because of the SC, but because the place that installed it also put in the wrong engine coolant. Retards they are.

Engine coolant...whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? That makes absolutely no sense... as long as it's a 70/30 mix, then it should be fine under almost ANY circumstance.

There are two types of engine coolant: green and pink. The green (for reasons I forget) is never supposed to be put into an E46 M3, according to my boss and a coworker.

Probably orange. Green and pink are pretty much the same thing, but the orange stuff (dexcool) has different properties. Though, i Doubt (could be wrong though) the m3 would have dexcool because it is corrosive to aluminum parts [bash]

That's awesome. I've heard that Vortech makes the most reliable superchargers around. I know on the G35 forum I post at, Vortech is the supercharger manufacturer of choice over there.
