Markert Motor Works Dyno Thread (many inside)

Dave, currently having Matt over at the flyin' wrench in Kennesaw do a full top to bottom rebuild on my m52b28. I'll eventually be bringing my car over to get a nice tune on it. Keeping it OBDII. Will have stock m52 intake on for the time being. Could you possible PM me some info on pricing and numbers I should expect out of it?
TIA

Will do. Matt is good peoples. Weve done some tunes for him :)

Dave, curious if you guys are able to do the remote tuning method on my '07 Z4M coupe. I'm debating the option already for my e30 anyways but I'm even more tempted to buy it if I can run it on my Z too. Also, what sort of gains can be found on a stock S54 from my chassis? I know it runs a different ECU than the Z3 and e46 and that it's apparently quite a bit of a change?

I do not use sport mode, fwiw. Throttle becomes annoyingly touchy

I will soon have flashing capabilities for MSS70 but dont currently have a XDF defined. Will work on this and can do remote flashing from there.

Ugh. Do an N52 damn it!

In progress ;)..

I have a full mss70 xdf :-P

First, Pump Only...:


E40 vs pump on JB4 with Rbs:


Had more in it but fuel pump decided no....





Oh and the WGDC on 'run 24'. Turbos+Inlets have alot left on the table...


N54E30 anyone ;)

I'm curious what, if any, gains do you see on a basically stock s52 when upgrading from the stock exhaust to something more free flowing?

I'm finally starting my swap this weekend (thanks for the coolant pipe and sensor btw) and I'll probably use my stock e30 exhaust for now. It's temporary because I know it's going to be a bit restrictive. So I was curious; with your dyno / tuning experience, what kind of real world difference exhaust makes on these engines?

So, it would be interesting to see how well DesertBMW's (HakenTT) tune actually performs... since, apparently, he's a self proclaimed BMW tuning god but after reading this entire thread, it seems his (lack of) knowledge would suggest otherwise. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of having my ms41.1 flashed by him to get my m52 swapped e30 running. However, I seriously doubt that his "tune" is utilizing the full potential of the S52 cams and M50 manifold I've installed (before he flashed it of course, he was well aware of my modifications prior to flashing my DME). Basically, I'm now convinced that his "tune" is nothing more than an EWS and emissions delete with downstream O2 removed... I think we would all love the opportunity to witness a before and after dyno session of MMW tuning vs. DesertBMW's flash...

I mean, Lawrenceville isn't but a hop, jump and a skip away... although I'm sure I could be there faster with proper tuning :rippedoff:

[BUDNUNTA]

Can you guys do the nv m50s?

Come by for a dyno tune, ill cut you a deal for the data ;)

Depends on the car/supporting mods.. we will be adding full headers/exhaust to the ZM3 weve done multiple mod step by step dynos on to see what the exhaust is really doing.

I might just have to call in sick for work one day this week and come on up ;D

When's good for you?

[328ijunkie]

Next week. Will be at SEMA all this week ;)
