Default Finally dyno'd my built 3.2L E36 -powered E30 M3

http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/showth...threadid=61867

thought you guys might like to see the results, 250rwhp and 222ft/lbs of torque on a built 3.2L E36 M3 motor with stock cams

that puts me right at 300hp/270tq :D

i've still got lots more to go, 280whp is my target

i think i already replied to this, but oh well. Awesome numbers alex, must be nice knowing this is just the beginning. Displacement and RWD own by the way, anyone that says otherwise is stupid as hell.

the lightweights are the shiznit. Saw a pristine E30 M3 lightweight up in Montreal during the F1 weekend. That was my favorite car. Sooo nice. Lot's of power and the weight is stripped off. Just the way it should be.

That thing must fly in a lightweight body like that.

yes it hauls ***. dead even with a E46 M3 SMG, and Alex's car was on a stock chip, injectors, and header. Since then he's put in the correct chip and big injectors, waiting on a custom built header.

Awesome car!

I remember you telling me that you had done it yourself, so how long did that actually take?
