cainchapman 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2005 In theory mine is the standard 212kW, so we've dyno'd it twice, 164kW & 155kW and 440Nm, (different dynos) so you should get a reading of 170-185 at the wheels I would guess (using similar loss). Does your car have cats? I assume it is an NZ new one. It's time to get the E34's down at the drag strip and show the lads in their E30's that you can't beat cubes for torque.

Hi BrentMy 540 is NZ new late 95 no cats as standard...UK Spec ? I have just added a DTM style exhaust which has relieved all the backpressure compared to the massive std unit. On full song she sounds superb. I am not doing any timed runs yet but the performance has been transformed with these tuning products I figure on 10% to 15% boost in kw and nm for an investment of $1500 chip $1000 muffler $350 filter $150 Works for me. See you at the track or the strip Cheers Everybody for your kind words Mark Edited July 3, 2005 by markusamigos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
