charles28 138 Report post Posted August 4, 2022 Cars now fully tuned on NPD 100 plus charge pipe water meth at 80/20 ratio with a 750ml nozzle. It runs 24psi at 9.4 degrees of timing in the higher revs. This gives it super car levels of acceleration between 100-200km. Ruapuna isn't long enough for 200-250km test unfortunately. I'm already for drag race season starting in September. The goal is low 11s in the 127mph plus trap speed range.

charles28 138 Report post Posted February 7, 2023 Took the 135i to a dyno day. 562hp and 819nm at the hubs. Graph is jaggered due to ZF6 trans and the way the dynapack loads it up. Dyno Video: 20230128_091107.mp4 The day after I took it to the Drags and ran 11.437 @127mph with a soft launch. Didn't get many goes unfortunately, but will be back in April.

charles28 138 Report post Posted November 17, 2023 This is becoming project content. I fried my turbos a month ago and just replaced the cartridges yesterday. Such a painful job, N54 sucks 😄 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was making about 600whp just before I blew a turbo, so umm hopefully get it back to near that all going well. Was it fueling issues that affected the turbos? No, but my injectors caused a bank to bank stft variance and some odd starting issues, were index 9s. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
