    977rwhp SAE and 821

    730rwhp ICS M3 Monster!!

    Well its been a great day today, Vic Sias flew in to tune the ICS Monster. It made 730rwhp SAE, and still has more left in it, id say another 50 rwhp, but the fact is I have to find out how to put the power down . This car will be going to the track soon!!! Brian will post up all details next-week, everyone im tired, have a great week-end. Vic did an excellent job.

    Understood... that's good reason not to post a video... but dyno? Info on the car? How much boost? Octane, etc? Shoudln't take more than a minute to write that up

    Look forward to it Brian.

    So to make 730 rwhp .. what is that at the crank? Using accepted US methods I guess you use a 12% drivetrain loss factor? That will do .. so that's 830 bhp.

    Now, if memory serves the ICS MONSTER uses a GT35R .. let's be generous and rate it at the maximum for GT35Rs without talking what trim .. that's 700 bhp at 1 bar.

    So to make 830 bhp from a 700 bhp turbo you'd need greater than 1 bar boost .. and racefuel.

    Let's guess VP C16 and 27 psi.

    That's gotta be the biggest tease ever..haha.

    Congrats guys and big props to Vic.

    So who owns this car, is it Nick? Too many "beast" in ICS's garage.

    This is probably the rare times I'm looking forward to Monday.

    Please post as much info as possible. Thanks. Have a great weekend.

    Hanging out there today was truly an honor and a treat...Believe me, I've heard alot of turbo bimmers before...I have never heard one that sounded so angry, terrifying yet beautiful at the same time. Big shout to vic, TECIII wizard for working his magic like that. Just for reference, after George and Vic came back from the test drive...put it this way, I've never seen George so in awe of a car's performance before...Cheers guys, you really did a number on that car...

    And Ledlum, after seeing what this car did...dude...I can't WAIT for your car...

    Congrats, awesome numbers!

    Maybe this will convince the "stock ecu is as good as a standalone" people that this is the way to go.

    Because what the hell is the point of posting "I mad XXXrwhp" and no more information... obviously you're already in the circle of in the know, just like everyone else who seems to hang out at the shop all the time, so easy for you to say since you already know.
