Got to dyno the e30 on saturday. Ran on a portable dynojet, can't say I was fully pleased with the results given the condition of the engine and build but I need a better exhaust system and work on isolating the intake filter. Car made 226whp and 212lb ft of torque. Torque was very flat, hp climbed nice and smooth but started to make max power at 5500 and stayed flat all the way to redline. AFRs were pretty good too given the injector size, never dipped below 13s.
Given 15 percent loss thats 260 crank and 18 percent makes it 267. I was hoping for the area of 240 at the wheels, but I think that can be had with a few changes (and probably cams).
95 s50 completely rebuilt with maxsil 87mm pistons (3.1 litres) head all stock but all valves relapped to seats. SS replica headers with e30 exhaust and borla muffler. Bimmerworld intake boot with 3.5" hfm, afe filter, 24# injectors and Jim C tune for all mods.
