http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=545024 Check all the thread, lots of info. there, but especially don't miss the post 39. As I said, in fact wouldn't change a thing for me to "know" what the real power and torque are, I like what I have anyway and I find it "optimistic" to totally believe in what BMW told us about the figures of this car. After all, they also told us that it makes 0-100km. in 4.9 sec. (0.1 slower than the official time of E92 M3 coupe, yet another very handy coincidence) Is that also a fact, since they have the best test pilots and facilities at hand, it should be the fact but the car is faster than 4.9 and faster than any stock M3 to 100kms, even if my mother drives it. |

Above post.
A much better number would have been the whp istead of some conversion to crank hp. Since we dont know what ratio he used to get to the numbers he claims its tough to compare to the OP dyno. I think you're right though the car probably is a bit underrated from BMW. It sure feels it seat of the pants!!! |

I wouldn't put any money on that especially against the DCT.

Not sure if entirely true, but a friend had gone to a dyno operator last yr (different car) and they allegedly said that 'max speed' on the dyno was stipulated in their insurance policy and refused to do 5th gear pulls because of that. I'll go back next week again and document the exhaust delta (MadDad Midpipe + Akrapovic Slip-On), maybe I'll try and pursued them to give me one 5th gear pull
