Dyno Results - E93 M3

SlammedR8 · 01-22-2009, 10:45 AM

As I posted earlier yesterday, I went to dyno my E93 M3 on a Dynapack Dyno. Apparently they are the most accurate readings because they actually attach to the cars hub and measure the power. I did 5 runs, 4 of them in 3rd gear, and 1 in 4th gear.

Thanks to Pencilgeek for giving me the proper gear ratios to use and giving me a few heads up on how do it properly.

In case anyone needs to know...the proper gear ratios for 6MT are:
For 3rd gear, use 6.084 gear ratio. For 4th gear, use 4.586.

FYI: 94 Octane Fuel - Half tank filled!

Here are the links to the videos on youtube.

1st run:

2nd run:

3rd run:

4th run:

5th run:

I'll post pics this afternoon.

and here are the dyno sheets.
the 1st one is my best run...3rd gear pull. 382.8 hp

the 2nd graph is a graph of my 1st run, 3rd run (4th gear) and 5th run (the best one)

I can not wait for your dyno with the AA software!!

very flat torque! 238lbs-ft @2300rpms in high revving smallish displacement V8 is impressive

Wow..I would have thought this thread would have had more publicity...

What is that limit light that pops up on your dash?

was your car stock?
and how much km on yours?

Gearhead999s · 01-22-2009, 03:06 PM

Did they use a correction factor to take the cool temps into effect as it was about -6c which is quite a bit below standard.That will contribute to higher readings.Still very good readings though.

SlammedR8 · 01-22-2009, 03:25 PM

Heres a link to the video that the guys @ Dynamotor Sports posted on youtube

its a compilation of all the runs put together

catch · 01-22-2009, 03:30 PM

I kinda have a boner may i bust on your car? hahah

car is stock it had about 10000km on it
don't get me wrong i'm very happy with the car

jlaw · 01-22-2009, 04:00 PM

Nice. I assume those gear ratios were used to correct the numbers based on the fact that you dyno'd in 3rd and 4th, as opposed to 5th which has the usual 1:1 ratio for dyno testing?

FYI, the amount of gas in the tank has no effect on dyno numbers, unless it's so empty that the engine isn't getting fuel.

Gearhead999s · 01-22-2009, 05:03 PM

[QUOTE=PencilGeek;4002912]I've looked at the dyno files. They used SAE 1394 correction (the industry standard). The correction factors were right around 3.6% -- which is very normal.

Where do you see the correction factors?I only see SAE standard on the graphs.

schnell325 · 01-22-2009, 05:34 PM

Excellent compilation video!

D1911 · 01-22-2009, 05:54 PM

those are some really nice numbers!

This is before the AA ECU right?

I sent PG my dyno files, when I finished my runs I handed the guys over @ the Dyno place my USB stick, and they uploaded my 5 runs to it!

Thanks, and yes- this is before the software upgrade from AA. I will dyno again next Thursday/Friday when the software upgrade has been done.

My mods are below in my signature.

-Eisenmann Race Exhaust
-Rogue Pulley
-AA Air Filter
-RPi Air Scoops

thats it!

SS32 · 01-22-2009, 07:15 PM

That exhaust sounds nasty

aus · 01-22-2009, 07:56 PM

Very impressive numbers considering some dyno around 340's stock.

eagletangogreen · 01-22-2009, 09:25 PM

Thats some nice numbers!!!! Now take it to the track and see what you can do!
