*RJ* 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 I was at the last NZPC Dyno day and there was a guy in a 328 with nos. He ran 120hp at the wheels then hit the button and it went to 160hp at the wheels. I didn't it was too over the top and the install was very subtle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dnz 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 120hp? So theres a loss of 70hp from the flywheel? To get that he woulda had to have like 260hp or so then right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends on what type of dyno.Carl, here is no way in hell your car would make 118rwhp on the dyno we used for the BMWCC up here last time.

You know, that's probably true, but it's not because the dyno we used was innacurate.At least I can say in all honesty that my b20 put out 118.5hp at the rear end Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cainchapman 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 Please chuck Nos into it. I've love to fit it to the 540! David's 325 was under 100kW at the rear wheels, and mine is about 160kW. So if you're getting that out of yours. Don't mess with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EuroBoy 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 If you do put it in (which i think you should) please keep us all here at bimmersport updated. So far no-one has answered any of your questions, and im sorry to say i have ZERO experience with NOS or your car. Good luck with it if you choose to go through with it. What are the specs on your car? Stock? or have you had a tinker under the bonnet. If anyone knows anything about doing it im sure that information would be helpful.
