My 4.5 runs 405 BHP on the long induction pipes and 415 on the short ones with a different Map (Both on Rolling Road).
It definitely accelerates faster than a V8 M3 but as the M3 is a very fast car you have to be travelling pretty quick on normal roads to notice.
I had a E92 M3 after my Cerb and never once did I think it was a quick car(in comparison to the cerb), with it weighing 1650kg and only having 295 torque and max power at 8300rpm...you had to be going very silly speeds for it to feel anything like quick.

I went on a chatsworth TVR run in the M3 and I couldn't get close to the Cerb I was following everytime he gunned it, the Cerb has around 100bhp per tonne more than the M3 and for me you really notice it.

2007 onwards used the 4 litre v8, just over 400bhp, the new straight 6 twin turbo has around 425bhp, shaved about 100kg off the weight and does a 0-60 in a comparable time to the 20 year old cerbera (and costs twice as much) biggrin

In a straight line it'll be who gets the best launch, however I suggest once the cerbera hits third gear...
