2012 135i dyno pulls!

[JeremyN55]

My 2012 135i DCT has an AFE intake, and straight pipe no exhaust. I wanted to do a dyno pull to see what these are putting down. I seen others on dynos and I was very disappointed with the numbers. But not mine!

315 HP
308 TQ

To the wheels in 101 degree weather at 4200 ft.
I would of put down more torque but it kept kicking down at full throttle so he couldnt do low RPM pulls.

isnt that the same n55 engine as in the older 135i?

why are the dyno pulls so different?

seems with more power

Please say you have a video? That's insane if those r wheel #s

Pretty sweet at those temps

Damn. That's very good. Mine with JB4 stage 2. DP BMW intake only put down 299 but not dyno jet.

What is straight pipe no exhaust? Like no mufflers, downpipe, etc.? Good numbers it sounds like. My N55 FBO was 370/432

What gear was the car in and why was it kicking down during low rpms? I'm guessing the person doing the dyno went past the kickdown point. I think if you stop at the kickdown point, it is still full throttle.

I really hope this isn't one of those pointless posts where the OP posts one thing and then never gives any input on people's questions... I'm afraid it probably is since OP only has 21 posts total.

Also, it's really easy to feel the kick-down switch and not activate it while still at WOT.

Exactly. I'm about to dyno mine within a couple weeks and will post results but these numbers seem off..

[bdoooh]

Is it just me.. or whenever there's a 2012 dyno up here.. it always seems higher than normal? Maybe I need to go get dynoed and see what's up..

The N55 came in the 1 series in 2011, i didnt record a video. I wish i did! Next time after i get it tuned. I have 3 inch pipe from the resonator back with no muffler.

I might of got a healthy motor, ive beaten alot of cars that should of been waaay faster then me. A 2006 mustang GT pro charged 500 whp, a 99 camaro with a LS7 450 whp, a E85 sti, on 21 pounds. A 514 hp 2010 civic si. I have all those races on video

[JeremyN55]

It was a 4th gear pull, he had to take it to 4500 rpm before WOT or it down shifted to 3rd

Could you provide those videos?

Probably just an optimistic reading dynojet. Solid numbers nonetheless.

Because he went past kickdown. It will not downshift in "m mode" unless you go past kickdown.

Numbers dont mean shit in regards to dyno's since every dyno's calibration differ from factors like elevation climate and other things play a huge factor to the numbers game. The deltas in comparison to stock graphs matter to see the real improvement over stock. As much as were rooting for ya, unless those cars you mentioned that you raced and beat were coming from the other direction when you beat them, those claims dont add up.

This post is stupid.

I want to see a full dyno pull in 4th or 5th gear from 2,500-6,800 rpm. You should smoothly reach WOT at about 4,500 and not hit the kick-down switch.

Torque on our cars is always more than HP... always. No matter what.

Let's see your AFR.

[Vigilante375]

My stock '12 135i 6spd with ~3500 miles put down 280rwhp, torque was calculated about the same. Since the newbie dyno guy couldn't get a good reading on it and said it was over 360rwtq....right. 280rwhp with =/+ torque is about what is seen with these cars but this one is kind of odd with the little mods that are done to the car and weather.....and altitude.

But dyno numbers means different things to everyone. I see it as a place to go to see how much you gained in power from the mods. But the 1/4 mile tells the tale of what power you really are putting down.

Not trying to rain on your parade OP but something isn't right here with those numbers.

[1shot]

One possible issue is that the sae correction factor was designed for NA cars. As a result, it over compensates for altitude on turbo cars. The higher the boost, the greater the error. Makes for inflated dyno numbers
