Not true..I have a e92 m3 and they're ~350whp stock. There are exhaust options for well under $1k as well. The $10k+ superchargers run 5-600whp and just under 400wtq.

But regardless, I agree with the sentiment - I don't drive it because there's not much to mod/improve on.
Well yea really depends which stage SC you get I know it's starts at 8k not including installation which the stage 1 wouldn't hit you 5-600whp. I have a heartbreaker dyno in my area so. Is really showing low power for stock. And exhaust under 1k is like an off brand name exhaust. Most exhaust is over 1k like ARK is about 3-4k. Either way the M3 is long gone. I like my FR-S better

The coils feel more planted to the ground, the eibach feels almost like stock set up but lower.
