add a blower to an e46, and you are looking at some serious competition regardless of S4 mods.
but that bimmer straight6 is really tightly wound, I'm not sure how long it'll last.

Never heard of a supercharged E46 M3.
My friend has an E36 M3 and hangs with many BMW groups/clubs including BMW CCA. He has never seen, or even heard of a SC E46 M3. Since Dinan doesn't offer one on their website it's doubtful anyone would try it on their own with the engines sketchy past and no warranty like Dinan offers. Needless to say, if Dinan eventually does decide to make a supercharger for the E46 M3 it would be interesting to see if they get the same/more gains than they did from the E36 M3 which was 100+HP and 80+ ft-lbs. which puts it at 45 ft-lbs higher than the stock E46 M3. That would mean in a hypothetical situation a SC E46 M3 would be at 430+HP 340+ft-lbs. So I'd think anything short of stage 3 and higher would have a tough time. But that's just my opinion.
