Just dynoed my m30b35... not pleased.

nm I see you said crank

Are you using a euro e28 or e34 motor? The e34 had the most hp at 211. Add a few hundred thousand miles to that and you would be right around your #. Have you ever had it rebuilt?

190 hp not bad what were you looking for ?
I would check the A/R, Because you were saying it is running rich.
I would also try opening up the intake side Filter,Big bore throttle body. and what kind of exhost are you running?

I would say 190 hp at the crank is not bad I would think 190-205 and would not expect much more.

I just got back from the dyno, and I am (to say the least) quite disappointed.

the dyno sheet showed me a 'corrected' 141.8 Kw, or about 190 hp at the crank :(

That is LOW for an M30B35. I also noticed that the car was running a little richer than it should (smoke out of the exhaust).

I checked compression, and it's practically perfect across all cylinders. Air filter and fuel filter are new, sparks are new.

I'm stumped. Anyone know what may be going on?
