for a track car, 100%. almost every reply in that thread are track/auto x dudes.

if i had all kinds of money to waste, i'd love to build a nasty n/a motor fuh street raze.

if i read correctly, that was on 104 octane... i'm waiting to see what they'll do on 91.

Thats true, forgot about that. For a DD, FI makes sense but for a trackcar these are perfect.

Makes me wish I wouldve just put a built 24v in a 2200lb e30 and had fun in DM for not much $.

Wait till evosport finalizes their cams, should be quite a bit better than sunbelts. With unfinished tuning they were at 284rwhp on a IP legal motor.

very amazing#'s. I would be fairly happy with 280 rwhp in an e30.

[bmw332i]

278 whp. He had some headwork done, shorty headers, Ti retainers, custom exhaust worth more than 5 r3v member's cars, etc.

For the most part, that does indeed sum it up. I don't think there's much else I can do other than stroke it and still leave it NA. I was tossing around the idea of MoTec a couple years ago, but lost interest because of some concerns on driveability.

Prior to that dyno was an intake, 3.5" HFM, Conforti/Turner chip, and Tri-Flow Exhaust. That's it. Now, however, is a totally different story.

schweet numbers then!

What mods are you running now and have you dyno'd since then?

Sorry for the grainy image, but here is the scan from my car after the intake, 3.5" HFM, and at that point "shitty stock headers/cat/Tri-Flow exhaust" setup, and appropriate Turner/Conforti chip.



As others have mentioned, do not do crank pulley, but accessory pullies are just fine. I thought cams were a real improvement, and well worth the cost. If you're going to do them, you may as well do the 24lb injectors as well (along with appropriate software changes). I liked the Turner/Conforti tune at that point, but others may have more aggressive tunes that you may like better. I like the feel and reliability of a NA motor, but others like FI. To each his/her own.

And that's about where most people stop, with maybe the exception of doing headers and a more free-flowing exhaust. If you want more NA, it'll cost you more than a turbo set-up, so you may want to mull that over. Good luck!

Awesome, thanks for the info.

Now quick question, what exact mods were on your car prior to that dyno?

I'm not shooting for numbers, I'm firing way past the ear to ear smiles.

[Ali//325i]

You sound to be looking at what I'm looking at doing as well.

Sweet, what exactly do you plan on doing? what #s are you shooting for?
