            it's probably making around the amount of power that they used to when they sat in their original E36 chassis....

              which is approximately:

              M50 = ~190hp
              M52 = ~208hp

                        Whats the problem with just doing your desired mods...

                        ...and enjoying the benifits.

                        What is this need to know your EXACT horsepower. Street cred? All test conditions vary so much anyway(type of dyno, atmosphere, etc) no one has a decent comparison.

                        Unless there was only ONE dyno.

                          To ensure you haven't gone backward with hp. You could screw your exhaust and make it so the car is producing less.

                            You need to go OBD1. to start tweaking.
