Active Autowerke Level 2 625 Supercharger System

Jean@ActiveAutowerke · 05-24-2011, 10:23 AM

Hey Guys,

Vehicle 1: Alpine white E90 M3, 6 Speed, stock cats, Supersprint Exhaust and the Active Autowerke Level 2 625 Supercharger System.

Vehicle 2: Alpine white E92 M3, 6 speed, Active Autowerke X-Pipe, Active Autowerke Exhaust and the Active Autowerke Level 2 625 Supercharger System.

Both vehicle were taken to a Dyno Jet and to the Active Autowerke Mustang Dyno on Friday May 20th, 2011. All testing completed between 9am and 4pm.

You'll notice Vehicle 2 will show a ~15% drive train loss on a Dyno Jet and a ~23% drive train loss on our Mustang although all testing was completed on the same day and conditions.

A Dyno Jet is an inertia dyno which calculates horsepower based on how fast the drum (set weight) is spun and then it calculates horsepower. Dyno Jets also 'assume 85% mechanical efficiency' which means it factors in a 15% drive train loss in it's formula.

Our Mustang is a load based dyno and calculates the horsepower differently based on vehicle's weight, temp, etc... Generally Mustang's tend to read lower. Scroll down for charts and vid's.

Based on the charts below you'll also notice Vehicle 1 shows on ~15-20 less horsepower while the only difference between the cars is the exhaust system.
This is why...

nice numbers guys i hope to have another dyno soon to see how much my cat less pipes added power to my car.

Jaypod · 05-24-2011, 10:44 AM

Great Info Jean - looks like some solid numbers!

Jean@ActiveAutowerke · 05-24-2011, 11:39 AM

Thanks guys.

Yes due to the overall design of the system it does make a healthy dose of torque.

Enjoy the car!

Be safe out there..

Beedub · 05-24-2011, 04:17 PM

TQ figures are great......Just what these ///M engines need, each blower has its advantages, i love the vortech units for that top end power but what LOVE some more low end shove, these HkS units do fall at the top, each has it own pitfalls, great numbers and well done.

Jean@ActiveAutowerke · 05-24-2011, 06:40 PM

Thanks. You really can feel the torque, especially at part throttle.

Makes it a lot more fun to drive

Whyd you guys go with this size blower? Not trying to stir shit up, just curious...is it the same one that's run on the E46 platform?

The blower itself is capable of more. As far as choosing the blower we were pleased with the compact design and the 'turbolike' technology. The blower produces a good amount of usable torque in the midrange which we felt was the M3's weak spot.

Best,

again it was never 8 so please stop spreading wrong info.

Jean@ActiveAutowerke · 06-01-2011, 11:29 AM

akh23456,

No worries, I am sure everyone can read between the lines by now... As many things have been made very clear in the past week.

I would not sweat it, enjoy the car and drive safe.

Lets move on and keep this thread about the info in the orignal post or questions pertaining to it.
