Nice i need to get my car on the dyno. Where did you get the silicone 90* bend (replaces accordian)?

[PiercedE30]

Wow

[aeryk7]

Those numbers are good .I hope to put down numbers close to this. Do you have pictures of the exhaust.

[golde30]

damn, those are WHP #'s??

Has to be wheel HP, that's what I'm talking about....mods work well on the S50 engine....I have 95% similar mods:) why I keep up with E46 M3's and a 95 E36M3 with Dinan S/C

Just bought a 90* silicone hose that goes from 3.5'' to 3'' and fitted the ICV and crankcase vent tubes to it.

Only these...

I don't know. This is the only example I have seen of a stockish M3 on this Dyno Dynamics. Owner claims that you have to add 25% to the readings for a standard tranny to get HP. Sounds a little too optimistic, but I believe it does read a tad lower than a Mustang dyno in my experience with dynoing with both with same car.

[PiercedE30]

Yea, the DynoDynamic that is here in town reads about 15% lower than a number of Mustang dyno's here.

This is probably a better comparison. This one was made on different day when it was 97*F outside, if that makes a diff.

damn, what can i say, s5x swapped e30's ftw!

woah, that must feel pretty nice with 3.73 gearing!

woah, that must feel pretty nice with 3.73 gearing!

I switched to a 2.93LSD Saturday night because I was going on a drive with the AZBMW crew and wanted better gas milage and less noise.

Well now I'm thinking I'm never going back. I think I'm actually quicker now because I don't have to shift so much. Raced my friends E36 M3 and I start pulling and he's shifting way before me....I love it! And 100mph in 3rd is so sexy.

And even with the hard driving we did through the canyon runs I still ended up getting better gas milage than with the 3.73 when I'm taking it easy.:)

^^ you know, i asked you that in one of your threads hoping you or someone would have a nice answer to that. i wouln't care as much for mileage as i would for my engine though. i think your car is badass, i actually hope my setup is somewhat similar!

do we get another youtube showdown?!

About the gearing? I must have missed it.


What youtube showdown? I don't have any vids. I guess I should make a vid though. Just have to find a friend who is willing to video tape while I'm carving it up on the canyons.:D
