This thread is nonsense.

OP's car is messed up or traction control is killing the fun.

Let's be real here, if you took an M3 dyno and compared it to the 330 at any RPM, the wheel HP, torque and well anything at any RPM would be night/day.

I had a 330 loaner last month while the beast was at the dealership and the absolute last thought I had was, wow, you know this 248 HP 4 cylinder is quicker than my car.

You all realize the M3/4 makes 250 HP at the wheels at 3,000 RPM right? Yes, this car makes more power at the wheels at a measly 3K RPM than the 330i makes at the crank in total.
