Nicely done, thats not too far off from the manual 135i that posted 240km at the end of November....
Keep at it baracus, im sure once you fine tune the beast and you can get the boost better through the gears it will greatly assist with traction and increasing your exit speed.
Have a look at burgy's thread regarding a group buy for x35 intercoolers :thumbs:
One last thing, how does your autobox stand up to that all torque you are pushing through it?
Thanks guys!
I suspect the problem is that Procede's stg 3 map has the timing too far advanced for our conditions? Have customized the boost curve for altitude but am now gonna have to manually decrease ignition advance settings across the rpm & boost range (see pic below, going to take some time to decrease all the values by a couple of . points. Stg 1 map goes to -8 in places). When on the dyno under a light load timing seems fine, but at high boost (18psi+) I noticed knocking on the data logs as soon as I hit the higher rpm's in 5th on the track, even with meths spraying? Was only boosting about 16.5-17psi when I did the 237, so I'm sure there's some room to go
Am already running a pretty decent ETS intercooler, not quite as big as some others but has a very dense core.
The autobox seems to be holding up fine, only really makes the major torque low down, so hopefully not too much stress at the higher rpm's
