Aussie E30 M50TU B25 dyno results!

[Drew325is]

My friend who's just completed his E30M50 swap had a run at our car club's dyno day today. He posted a best of ~125 kw at the wheels. My very standard E30 325iS M20B25 posted a best of 101 kw.

Here's a quick video: http://www.sixinabox.com/MickE30M50.avi(1.6 MB)

I'll put the full dyno curve up when I get it.

That is cool and all but I would rather see more pics of the car.

Okay fair enough :D I mostly posted the results because a common question seems to be "how good is the M50 conversion?" I think 20+ kw at the wheels is a pretty good improvement over the M20B25! Can't wait to do my M52B28!!!!

The whole journal of the conversion can be found here: http://forums.eurocca.net/showthread...E30M50+journal It's got more photos etc.

A nice person over at our Euro Car Club site has made a cut down version of the RHD conversion i.e. cut out the "wow man, that's great" posts.
