Today I dynoed my car to baseline before the tuning and modifications being.

-2009 M3 DCT, 9200 miles
-93 octane, none of this cali 91 BS
-100 degree shop temp.
-No trickery, straight up gear ratios input along with final drive for DCT. Tried 3rd and 4th with same results. Ended up sticking with 3rd. Oil temp climbed a little too high with 4th pulls with no realfan.
-Installed RPi scoops on the dyno with a low speed 10mph fan and got a 3whp gain. ended up with 355 whp - graph for that coming soon.
-Hotlapped the car with no fans 4 times and barely lost ANY whp (2-3whp variance)

The baseline graph red is from disabling ABS but NOT enabling dyno mode, the car made **** power. You need to trip the airbag light by driving at 1500-2k rpms for a few minutes. It appears the car does not go full throttle or full power, as the curve is the same but the car sounds and feel different, like 60% throttle.

No problem! You wouldn't be interested in throwing it on the dyno again would you :hide: Were losing people left and right for our dyno day and need spots filled.

That day is tough, so many cars to tune. Plus my car is like a 30 minute process to even get it to dyno mode - ESP wouldnt even know what to do with it.

About time, ya homo.

Car is hot fire. I love E92's they have a meaner presence than any M3 yet, imho.

The E46 had a classy timeless presence. This car has the presence of a convicted rapist. <3 it.
