That is what the E30 dyno'd at yesterday. The numbers are pretty worthless, I mainly wanted to check the A/F to make sure it's where it's supposed to be and it is.
OBD-I S52B32, Turner Motorsports equal length shorties into a 2.5" exhaust, 3.5" MAF and a "The Racer's Market" tune.
This engine makes around 40lb/ft more TQ at 1800RPMs than the old M20 did at peak!
Now it just needs some really sticky tires. The el cheapo Nexen N3000 in 215/40/17 are worthless in first and some of 2nd.
mmm very nice. That motor is juicy in my "piggy" M3, I can't imagine how fast it is in an E30. Heck the M20 in my gutted E30 feels damn quick.
Pics?
Nice numbers... my 97 M3 with 80K on it , Dinan catback and air intake Dyno'd 219/218
My E30 also wears those terrible tires. They're bad even with the stock M20, I can't imagine the traction issues you're having with those numbers.
^Yeah, it's pretty bad. I'm just trying to decide now if I want to go with a sticky 215/40 or step up to a 235/40.
My suspension setup is overwhelming the tires as well on turn in. 550/750 with a 22mm front bar and no rear bar.
My car has so much caster up front, it appears the 235/40s may contact the front valance of the BMP kit.
miateme2, there are some pics in Readers Rides and also a few threads in the members ride section of www.r3vlimited.com. In the process of moving into the house we just purchased, so I'll try to post some up soon.
An instructor I had at VIR took me out for a session in his OBD1-e36 M3 motor swapped e30 M3. It went just fine...
