Anyone got a chart of what a healthy M3 Evo plot looks like? Probably one for Vixpy this...

Because he runs a rolling road place, he's bound to have a plot kicking about

This link should be useful http://www.bmwowner.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&a...

I've not had time to add mine yet but have just changed my PH profile picture to show dyno plot from earlier this month.

Unmodified 73K mile car ( new Vanos at 60K ) gave 299 prior to mods at Evolve. ( Simota induction, Supersprint Cat back and new map ).

Think this is one the better ones, from what i remember it was a high miler as well:

A good standard one should be between 290 and 300bhp, depending on how well its been looked after, and the valve clearances.

Sorry to hijack, but whilst I have Vixpy's attention...

Vix, this MAF eating problem you've experianced with the DaveF K&K kit on the RR, what are the symptoms. My inde'says the car is overfueling, causing a very lumpy idle. He can't reset the idle settings, so I booked it in at the dealership (Cha-ching). He did find a badly perished crank case breather hose, but after replacing, it's still as bad as it ever was. Strong as 'ote above 2K.

Could it be related to the MAF quoffing DaveF?

Hmm.. The maf issue tend to cause problems with under fueling, not overfueling, but if its on the way out the ecu's do sometimes do silly things with the fueling.

I'd take the maf out, give it a clean and see if it improves.smile

Cheers Vix. Good to hear in a way. Looking forward to getting the car back to rude health!

Hopefully a full diagnostic should diagnose it. Either that or Lambda or Idle Control Valve shot.

Its a Powerstation graph, Its renowned for massive losses.

Confused again ~ Please can someone explain. I dont understand why there are such large variations between RR results. If Wheel HP is the "true" power being generated how do Powerstation's losses generate 333 at fly from 236 RWHP but other RR (Dyno Dynamics) show 263 RWHP = 316 flywheel HP ( ie RWHP + 17% for 2WD ) Dave.

Just different dyno's chap, and different ways of extrapolating flywheel figs.
