128i FBO Dyno Run
First time running on a dyno and got some pretty decent results
N52 Modded Airbox w/silicon Elbow AA headers BMW Performance Exhaust 3-stage Intake Manifold AA Tune. View post on imgur.com << Loudest car of the day!Results HP: 242 TQ: 215 Which I'm thinking is pretty high assuming there is some drivetrain losses to factor in. The group I was with typically sees E36 M3's in the 205HP range with similar torque. But we had an E46 M3 hit around 280HP. So being somewhere in between is right what I expected. Again. |

Those are great numbers! I love how nice the N52's torque curve is. It's a very well set-up N/A motor.
An N54 intake manifold would give you a little more power at the very top of the rev range, and MILVS would net you ~8hp and ~8lb-ft across the power band, all wrapped-together with a StageFP tune. Maybe 255whp, if you wanted any more.

There are dyno's on the "3" series board with the N54 combo. You do lose a little TQ down low (I think around 8-10lbs IIRC), but you continue to gain up top past 7K rpm like Chris said. Milvs are a great bolt-on. I did them when I replaced my VCG. It's like adding Headers all over again....but the gains are in the low-mid rev range.

I can understand the tune. I was fortunate in that I went with Bob from Stagefp from the start through all of my mods. One other thing you could consider if you haven't done it...is a rear diff swap. The 3:73 out of the Autos give you the biggest bang for SOTP feel. You can feel that more than all the other "bolt-on's" combined in my opinion. 250whp with a set of 3:73's in this car is a blast!
