On dyno EVERYTHING needs to be switched off :idea:

Rolling Road dynos (thats what we all are using) are used in one only gear without shifting during the power messuring procedure :idea:
This is to keep a static gear ratio to ensure constant and equal power distribution.
If any possible it's done in the 1:1 gear that drives the gearbox at the same speed as the engine

With the weight disadvantage and the A/T gearbox I suggest NOT to do a dice from standstill but rather a rolling one to keep your chances alive
From standstill you WILL look at the GTi's taillights

One needs to be realistic :idea:
That GTi is roughly 30% lighter than the beamer at same power levels .... it's not gonna work from standstill unless you have about 200kw
Rolling start or once in motio it's a different story.....
Once your car's momentum is on the go, you need lesser power to keep it going
Just that initial kick off is the pain with weight

So a car thats has max performance in that gear, less than another car might have more power in other gears?
Haha mine too :fencelook: all I want is for my little 2 liter diesel to be faster than a gti.
Would this fit onto an E90? I just want the M on the tailpipes :rollsmile:
M performance tail piece

Didn't you tell me you wanted the 335i look-a-like rear system?

No problem. Looking at them again they look a bit thin at the tips I prefer it when the metal almost wraps around back inside if that makes sense, and doesnt just look like a piece of pipe thats been cut.
I did want the 335i look but I was told by brandon at pro-fit that for performance it would be better to go with a 63mm (I think) pipe straight from the front to the rear and not splitting it. Would this be because of weight?

For performance 63mm front to back without silencer :thumbs:
No worries the car won't be too noisy
