    Stock 885 FTW! Bimmerheads should send you a ported head to toss on there with the ITBs to compare to the stock head. Some casting cleanup/port matching seemed to go a very long way as well. +1mms were happy at .3000!

    This thread is getting me all giddy.

    How is the tune coming along on the motronic?

      Can you describe the touch up you did for test #7?
      Unless you want to flow test heads, yes, leave them alone. Been saying that for years. Even if test #7 was explained, it's not the same as real world testing. Besides, let's see if the dyno backs up all these years/tests. These gains/tests are a joke to most, and would laugh at a goal of 200hp. My machinist always laughs at me since he has a 2000+hp drag car, but it is what it is. Just a small shop trying to get hp from a 25+yr old platform for not a lot of money.

        It's coming. It really wasn't happy with the modifications as it sat, but it's driving around as of now.

              Yessir, if you and Jesse get it running good on Alpha-N Motronic, I would like to go that route. I've gone standalone in the past, and would rather just keep the stock ECU due to simplicity this time around.

              A few local E30 guys are also interested in the Alpha-N Motronic chip for the ITBs.

              Waiting on that chip solution to purchase the RHD kit, and cleaning up a few other areas on the mean time!

                When is the dyno going to happen? Really glad to see the m20 getting some attention. Great thread!

                            There will be this week. We had a few cars to prep for Sebring this past weekend, haven't worked on it since Wed.
