    Im new to the forums so not an expert on the codes yet. What year and model is the e92 and how much power does it make stock?

    Either way those are some nice/fun looking numbers, especially for a car that can haul "butt" comfortably.

    335i E92
    335i E92 is an 07 or later 335i COUPE - that's what the E92 means - body style coupe. This poster's E92 is an 08.

    The standard engine is quoted at 300BHP - but some dyno less as much as 280 I heard (not sure if it's true - mine has not been dyno'd).

    Interesting because I have an issue of European Car magazine and the results are MUCH lower.

    Probably because this dyno pull is from 6 months ago and v1.3 was officially released about 2 weeks ago.

    He's up over 400whp now. His current mods are in his sig.

    I'm sure he'll update with the new dyno soon!

    Thanks !

    Im impressed how well these cars respond to simple mod's. On top of that they maintain civility. Id like to see a dyno video of that pull. Bet it sounds nice.

    I'm going to go with the results in the magazine that show 29XHP on JB3 Map3, they had a 250hp baseline..which puts it right at about 300hp at the crank. BMW mellowed out the engine after 07 models (all cars got the update) so I don't think you see factory cars hitting 280hp on any dyno.

    You can go with whatever your heart desires, but I think you are generally wrong.

    I KNOW that ALL cars did not get the update. Mine is a March 07 production and it is running the original software, unless the dealer can update it remotely. Furthermore, at least at my local dealer, they do not update the software unless the customer has a complaint.

    Also, the latest 3 or 4 software updates restored what was lost on the earlier updates.

    There are quite a few people all over the country running the latest JB3 software and showing 375+ rwhp on different dynos with nothing but JB3 1.3 8DREVF, a dual-cone intake, and 93 octane gas. Plenty of other folks running latest PROcede and they are in the 365 rwhp range, too.

    This site is a lot of good things, but it's definitely NOT where I would look for info about tuning the N54 platform. This E9X section is the least technically astute one I've yet seen on the internet. Bunch of noobs.

    Why would one car with similar mods be 100hp on the wheels less...come on man. And if you've brought you car into the dealer in the past 2 years you GOT the update...if you asked or not. It was an update to the software. Even then we are talking a small change in the boost map.

    You can be a douche to me all you want, I'm not saying the car isn't nice, but Dyno's are only as accurate as their users, I use a dyno with similar software for small engines and if I wanted to I can make it seem like it's 1000hp.

    I'm not saying what you have is bad data, but don't bet your house that it is really accurate.

    Run that car on the drag strip and see some #s. Everybody likes to think their cars are more powerful than they are and don't like to acknowledge the fact that the car has a lot of sensors to adjust back to what it wants.

    I had a JB1 when it first came out, and it was a little bump. I didn't try to make it like it was more.

    Anyway...thanks for the graphs and thanks for showing how little you are by being upset. I'll scan the article to show you all the graphs they posted.


    EDIT

    Here is their article online...email them to tell them they are noobs and tools

    One thing that sticks out and will definitely cause fairly large gaps between this test and the posters original dyno results is the fact that map 1 used with 91 octane. Based on reading the JB3 docs on the maps there is going to be quite a large gap between those results and the 94+ octane and I expect the much more aggressive map used in the first post.

    Higher octane will make a huge difference for a turbo car. It will allow the engine to run a lot more timing advance without knock. Water-meth on my old VW added 40-50HP cause it changed the timing from -4DBTDC to -10DBTDC. This was on a 1.8L 4 banger pushing 21PSI to redline making 300WHP acording to the dyno that was used. In these much larger BMW 6's, timing advance under boost will make BIG power.

    You do need to take dyno numbers with a grain of salt. Each dyno needs to be calibrated and corrected for temp, humidity and altitude or the numbers can not be compared with other dyno's. If only we could use only one dyno to test everyones cars... Apples to apples.

    They used map3, and octane won't add 100hp without more boost.
