r0cketm0nkey · 06-05-2018, 12:04 PM

I'll dyno twice, once before the install and once again. Same day, 2 dynos back to back, video of each dyno

I'll use an external mike

Actually driving will be a bit harder because I don't want to go to jail... but I'll see what I can do

Maybe upload it to youtube as 'unlisted' and then provide the link via pm for interested parties

There are zero videos of me/my cars online and it isn't an accident

Fair point. I would settle for in-cabin windows up before/after on the dyno haha. For some reason my favorite sound in this car is with windows up.

Just two or three years of pushing Karbonius to build this thing

Got back home today from Virginia. I could install this weekend but then we won't have before/after dynos so i have to wait.

Before June is over we'll have results

GORDON.M3 · 06-07-2018, 08:44 PM

I just can't wait to hear this thing!

i hope it performs negative gains so it's cheaper

Lol

In Germany it gained 8hp like to like with a fully stock exhaust. But hopefully with a hfc xpipe it gains more. I'm fine with 0 hp though

roastbeef · 06-07-2018, 09:17 PM

Yea but that German air is more potent.

kaiv · 06-08-2018, 12:21 AM

Love it but the decision to put a roundel on it really throws me off. What a weird choice. S motor = ///M emblem

It can be replaced by any emblem as long as it's round. I'd like a ///M

roastbeef · 06-08-2018, 05:49 AM

Did you put it on yet, or do you just sit with it at the dinner table every night?

I want to install but I'm not a vendor and can't do 30 installs/uninstalls to get people the info they want. It'll have to be done in a single weekend!

I totally understand... when i actually work on my car its at 7pm or over a whole weekend that i'm finally off

Montaver · 06-08-2018, 08:34 AM

Perhaps when you are in Mexico doing the install you can get some onboard vids for a thoroughly scientific sound evaluation?
