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.

Took the 135i to a dyno day.

20230128_084143.thumb.jpg.2acf3aa08a44e53ccc50f77c7632a116.jpg

562hp and 819nm at the hubs.

Graph is jaggered due to ZF6 trans and the way the dynapack loads it up.

Dyno Video:

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.

Current 100-200km

Comparison to much higher end cars for 100-200.

Reminded me of this a R6 rider post to a forum a couple of years back. Very similar performance.

This is becoming project content.

I fried my turbos a month ago and just replaced the cartridges yesterday.

Such a painful job, N54 sucks 😄

Good work, what sort of power are you hoping for?

Was it fueling issues that affected the turbos?

I was making about 600whp just before I blew a turbo, so umm hopefully get it back to near that all going well.

No, but my injectors caused a bank to bank stft variance and some odd starting issues, were index 9s.

$4500 odd NZD

More like $4900 with core charge and shipping + GST. FCP are overpriced as usual though, the same product at Spareto is $4365 with shipping and no core charge + GST.
