, but here now, only had it a week and shoved it on the dyno, soi heres the results!







346BHP 259L/BS

 

Its got more power than my 4i

Steve

 

30 up on stock, nearly 10%, and I thought M division knew what they were doing...

 

Ah seen the ATW figures on bmwowner, 307bhp at fly

 

Which M3?

What mods?

at the wheels or fly?

What RR?

 

Evo.
Be nippy with 346 ATW.

 

345at the fly, so how the feck u get 307?

 

Power is measured at the wheels, then corrected to get the guesstimated fly figure, sometimes very very badly like in this case.
Why you believe your car has nearly twice the losses as it should has me baffled.
Irrespective, it's what's going to the road that counts, so yours is no quicker than a 307bhp evo, no matter what you think yours is actually producing.

Can't wait to see how this thread turns out, should be funny...

 

Short answer - A believable loss calculation, not one made up to make idiots happy.

 

an e36 m3 evo? whats been done to get it from standard 321bhp ?

 

Shite torque though.

 

316bhp standard

 

ive got 286 for the 3.0 and 321 for the 3.2 evo version ? according to bmw car mag figures.

 

Same as the owners handbooks, which are wrong too.
Those figures are PS, not a problem on a 90ps fiesta, but as you can see up around 300 is 5bhp on the evo, which struggles to make that, never mind the incorrect 321 so a bit unfair on them.

 

we will see which figure is correct as it is booked on a rolling road day along with mine and a few others in scunthorpe on may 31st.
it may have that power it may not,chill out ffs. if it feels quick enough on the road,so be it.


ps, was your first post meant for e36 coupe forum matt? you certainly aint new on here.lol

 

quality! only been a bimmer owner 4 a week, and allready got everyones bk up lol.

Not many Evo's got close to BMW's stated power figure though, I think they over-stated it a fair bit.

Whereas 3.0's would more than often show a bit more than stated power!

 

Gonna run it again sat morning, just put a filter on it!

 

i may be wrong but the 321 is for the lhd cars and rhd never made that power something to do with the layout of the engine bay

 

Thats what figures i always thought was right too. My dad took a Toyo cup M3 Evo up north to be rolling roaded a couple of weeks ago, made just under 350bhp, it had a remap, not sure what else.

 

Downpipes I reckon.

Rossco - Germans use PS, converted to English (bhp) it's 316.
I know everywhere says 321 bhp, is a minute amount between din and bhp, but adds up when in the 100's.
Guess no one bothered to convert.

 

Rossco u no wat mods it had?

 

The brake applied on coast down.
Oh no, sorry, that's yours

 

What was the ATW figure ?

Steve

 

why does the word prick come to mind?

 

As above please

Steve

 

Dunno, have you recently looked in a mirror?

260

 

Thats not a bad figure.

 

 

If its 260 ATW thats about 310 max at the fly

Steve

 

Yep 307 I make it with method I've found to be accurate.

You can't reason with this guy though, check the bmwowner thread

 

so i post my results! waite till sat morning, wen its run in the proper gear!

 

The ATW figure is spot on, why not be happy that a standard car makes standard power?

 

got a gut feeling i may be right sir dick head!

 

346 from a standard car?

 

Matt
what mods have been done ? de cat ? chip ?
i cant see the thread on the bm owners forum as im not a member , not really a fan of the anal retentive type that seem to frequent bm forums . phone me bitch.

 

Well if you're gonna be all grown up about it

Chip and decat would get nowhere near, talking cams and live map and carbon airbox etc to get close to that.
Big money to tune these as they're on 100ps per litre NA.

 

what was the figure at the wheels?
then go and find out what normal m3's make at the wheels

simple enough ain't it

 

Still 260 Dojj.
Healthy Evo's make, funnily enough, 260

 

so if the normal wheel figure for the motor is aorudn the 260 mark then he's got a normal car

i can't see why everyone is up in arms about it other than the owner who thinks it's made 350 odd
