You guys did such a great job tuning the E9x M3, people don't believe your gains. Take that as a compliment. You have the dynos to prove and have stated you will go to any dyno to prove it again.

Yeah, Alex @ Gintani is a really good guy. He'll be tuning mine once I stop being a little girl and go with their full exhaust .

The tune is what really helps the big hp gain, we got around 25 Hp just off the tune. The car was on the dyno for 2 + hours just so we get it right. (talking about that night)

Its too bad ur not in the So Cal area. I would be more then happy to give u a ride in my car. Im sure with one ride u would be convinced, my car can back the numbers. It feels like a totally different car compared to stock. But i will be making dyno runs on other dynos asap for comparisons and even add race fuel to see the gains. My license has been suspended for a while now so I havent been able to drive anywhere . But I should be getting my restricted license next week.

I'd probably have no license if I owned an M3 too.

LOL Niqui... Why is it so hard to believe it . We did a short roll on and I even redlined in second gear and took about 2 cars on you in a short distance and I have all the bolt ons this thread is all about. (sig missing AA ECU and AA Pulley).

My car is FAR from stock and you've seen the results so why doubt it ?

After the mods listed above it made 392.5. Here is dyno sheet plus a video.

Nice jump in numbers, I may come and visit you guys in the future, I'm getting the mod itch and want more power.

Can you PM me a cost what this setup would run me, please

Talking I wonder how many whp I will gain with my bolt-ons

I have just purchased the AA X-pipe w/high flow cats,AA pulley,AA airfilter,AA ECU Software, and RPI scoops. The only problem I have is that I am not at home to check it out. I am still deployed in Iraq , my friend is putting the ECU with the AA software up grade back in my car today for me and he will install my RPI scoops. Once my ECU is back in my car it will be taken to a shop in my town sometime next week and have the AA X-pipe w/high flow cats installed and connected to my already mounted Remus Race exhaust. The AA pulley will be installed as well I will have to wait til I go home for my R&R vacation in June from Iraq to check this out and run it on the dyno

I hope you did a "before" dyno otherwise you can't really tell the true difference. Im sure Pencilgeek would say this as well...

im not doubting the performance gains...i rmeeber our roll-on.
but just 75hp sounds like a lot...didnt you tell me you gained around 50hp from all your work? cause if u gained 75hp, ur car is gonna be pushing, theoretically, 489hp.... when the rs46 stroker gets u what 118 hp or so boost....im just thinking
...ur car is my reference essentially.

I wouldn't mind a ride . Does Gintani tune ANY M3 with mods or just M3's with their mods?

We should get niterider (full bolt-ons) to run against PG and see how big of a difference the 4.6L is.
