| DYNO Results for the Haters - 443.47rwhp and 429.53lb ft of torque at 21psi.
I moved to Edmonton a couple years ago, but I thought I'd post my dyno chart for the non believers. lol.
A big thank you goes out to Horsepower Solutions, Edmonton, for the Dyno time. Great guys to deal with.
I made 443.47hp and 429.53lb ft of torque at 21psi, at the rear wheels. We had to stop because I couldn't figure out how to disable the overboost protection in megasquirt... now that I have that solved, I'll be returning to do a 25psi run. The timing also needs to be tuned.
For more details, check out the cardomain: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2949110
Here is a poor quality video of one pull, but it wasn't the peak power pull. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_zOxhhUqEs
Cheers.

My old profile "danpinder" doesn't seem to exist anymore. At least I think that's what it is... anyways... haters will recognize the car. lol

If you think there are not any turbo e46 non m3s running around, you are wrong.

an LSx would slip right in though

rofl, still using bungee chords? Upgrade to CF ones? roflcopter!
But good power. Congratulations.
I'm just sort of shocked that you're still holding a grudge after... 4 years. I'm sure most don't even remember. I had to think really hard to finally remember. Move on and enjoy your car.

I'll be in the 500rwhp club soon. Booyaa. lol

welcome back | JB weld is awesome. I love that stuff... and I still rock it in one spot.
I had to use it before to plug a hole in the stock manifold. Worked awesome and I'd do it again if I needed to.
And actually.. they were eibach linier race springs from ground control.
Yup.. had a 90deg.. still didn't boost creep.
See.. hate on haters. Just know that my ride has large brass testicals.

Not saying they don't exist, just would be cool to see.

That is at FULL DROOP ON A HOIST. It would never do that on the street. What you can't see is that they are sitting on an adjustable perch inside the original spring cup. When the car is sitting on the ground it lines up.
It's been 4 years... I haven't changed the springs... it drives good... they have never fallen out, shifted, caused issues... etc. I think you're just jealous. |

I wouldn't think twice about it... but I learned a lot doing my car, so it would be a lot easier the second time around. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc0...tamatis-2_auto
Did you check on DTMPower.net?? There are quite a few turbo e36s on there... might be some e46s too.3
I'd love to pick up a 318 e46 and drop in an 86 m30 3.8l motor,,, you can make 800hp on a stock motor if you slap a turbo and MS on it. Stock with something like 7.8:1 compression.

I hope you upgraded to a 3bar MAP sensor if you're going for 25psi!
Was this the one that was turboed in Victoria 4-5 years ago, or another one?

The only thing I recall having bungee cords on was a POS mazda 626 I had for a few months. lol.
But hey... carbon fiber bungees would be awesome. Could be I just don't remember... I wouldn't put it past me to do something ghetto like that for a short period.

I ran into a problem on the dyno with overboost protection kicking in... I would have just disabled it on the dyno, but I didn't now how... found out when I got home though (set it to 100kpa).
That will be the next mod, 3bar map sensor, along with meth injection and we'll up the boost.
