    e30 and a thermal camera

    Thought I'd try some shots with a thermal camera on my e30 here. The temp readings on the gun are 10°F low. It's 17°F out now, and these shots where taken after a 30 min drive from work.

              road friction?

              40-50f isn't very warm for tires

                Definitely road friction.

                  Proof (once again) that BMW knew what they were doing when they designed that air intake.

                  Need a CAI on stock M20 my ass.

                    whatever, I hear you can gain 25whp with a cone filter and a MAF. BMW obviously designed the rest of the motor to make 200hp, but for some reason they made the entire intake tract too small. :p

                      Maybe if you swap to an M30B35 you can make 200hp. :p ;)

                              Its actually my dads camera, he uses it for caving. I'm kind of surprised he let me use it lol. But I think he said it ran him about $1000
