You are riding a Label version? Stock?

My guess is not a Label version. I am getting 3.2 in a XM Label

my xm is not a label but i am making 180-200hp more than a LABEL, to run those numbers, so its almost impossible for a label to run those numbers based on my experience and reality. ( would be interesting if you post a video and draggy of you running that number will sure be a world record )
there is a video of a label with a tune that was once of the fastest xm runs vs a Porsche gt and that label was with a tune also and my numbers were faster than that in both ET and trap speed.

if you are calculating 0-60mph thats 3.3 and thats due to launch and traction should run 3.1 if all stars align and 0-100kmph thats 3.5

note:
currently thats the fastest XM having the highest trap speed and the 2nd quickest XM runing 11.1 1/4 mile since the quickest ran 10.98, hopefully once weather cools down will try to get the 10s run.........

I have a video but no draggy I posted it in the past. 44 degrees, near sea level, 60-70% humidity. I went frame by frame from 0–61mph. Took 3.23 seconds.

I back XM label what he posted …. numbers I have I was we did even better with 2 adults in the car we can do 3.2 all day just can . Xm label is right

thats great 0-60 numbers would love to see what it does past the 60mph because thats when the real power kicks in 100-200 ( 60-130 ) and 1/4 mile / trap speed

the label does for sure have a better launch because it has the over boost option but thats it main advantage over non label, even booth cars having been tuned make the same power.

I don’t have definite data just seat of pants but you are right. Your 11.1 quarter mile is faster than a Label. My guess is XM label quarter mile is somewhere between 11.3-11.5 where I live….

Hate to say but my label beat the 11.1 today not sure I want or need to push it again had a great launch had on the shifter in the highest rev didn’t even hold the brake just a cold start … and held the boost the whole time . To the floor . Fast enough for me

congrats the whole point is knowing the that xm is a powerful car and running great numbers.

This has gotta be the best lookin XM I've seen to date. Great work on your build.

The one thing that still just looks missing to me is the rear door center roundel - my eyes want it to be there. The all black limited edition one would look so sinister on this ride.

Keep posting your times if you ran super hot you can definitely do a little better!

What tune you running? I have the stock xm.

I once dated a girl that only looked good from the back

Right. 0-60 has become a fools metric, had some relevance like 30 years ago before the HP wars. Now it’s a terrible comparison point.

My best in 21 x5M on 93 with racechip was 11.2 with 3.18 0-60. Making more power now with JB4 on E30 but have not cared to retest. 10s would be amazing OP.

Got caught sleeping at the light? JK. Nice run.

[cfm56d7b]

Very nicely done! Perhaps even the very XM that looks better than any other one.

[wesleyan92]

What a great looking car!

I would strongly consider putting smaller/lighter wheels. That would improve the 1/4 mile time by 0.2-0.3 sec, if not more.

I love the black color

i agree 100% the 23'' wheels are big and heavy, let alone the car is already very heavy
