N55 JB4 ISO E85 Dyno!

I guess I'm the only one who sees it differently. The power curve under 4600 looks great, but then it just falls off its ass.

The N55 can make as much torque as the N54 but after 4500rpm power really dies off. It's still a potential high 11 second car with all that power though.

Alright here you go... Just stumbled upon this but knew i'd find one sooner or later...

Full bolt ons... 50/50 E85 mix.

Cobb Custom tune:

Cobb OTS Map vs. Cobb Custom Tune:

Cobb Custom: 473whp/542wtq
Cobb OTS Map: 450whp/510wtq

Two turbos are better than 1 for torque, even if the one is a twinscroll

We should stop comparing n54 and N55 we all know that the n54 is a better engine when it comes to modding. Now lets focus on N55's Capabilities.

That is the reality of the n55, unfortunately.

N55 still hasn't made over 400 wheel horses without meth? Damn

Torque numbers are very impressive, though.. despite the sucky top end.
