a bit off topic, but if MBRP creates an exhaust for our cars that'd be awesome. I've had a few of their exhaust systems for turbo diesel trucks, and they are on the top!

Werd, that's why I askd him if they had any coming out. Top notch stuff.

Hey where's that dyno reading?

[Jesse@MBRP]

As promised here it is. The three runs were at different times during the day to try and see if the baro pressure had anything to effect the tuning. The differences were minimal. For whatever reason the file holding my stock numbers was not letting us lay it over this dyno for comparison but I do have the numbers. Max stock was 281.4rwhp and 308.2 tq. Same dyno similar conditions outside.

New Numbers Below. 322/366

+40whp and +60wtq sounds like great results!

Looks great. Just drove it again for 20 miles and it is definitely more powerful. Been driving it on the freeways and backroads.

Hehe. So wait are those numbers from the dyno using the default settings on the new JB3?

We are getting a ton more torque!

Those are actually not bad numbers, I wanna see an identical dyno with the Procede just for comparison. Wish I was in KY!

Def great but it looks like I got the check engine / reduced power light today after a couple pulls. I'm guessing my 2011 car built after September 2010 may still have hpfp issues.

You got a check engine light using default settings on he new JB3 for n55?

Actually, do you have the latest fw? There is an update, cars were throwing codes in the cold weather.

Very pleased so far with the results. There isn't much in the way of intakes available for the N55 which I find kind of odd but hopefully they will come in time.

As for the downpipe, because it's not slated for development I'll have to look at some of our competitors products I assume. AR is the brand of choice I take it?

Ar and icarbon are the only ones making dp for the n55 right now.

And if you do for some awesome reason make an exhaust for us, don't charge us 1200 for a damn axle back like everyone else

I have noticed the sheer amount of "BMW Tax" associated with some of the kits out there. Not sure where it stems from, but I know I can manufacturer a T304 system in North America for a fraction of the cost some of these kits are out there for. The only thing I can see warranting such high costs is a real low volume in sales, however with the modding I see on the forums surely that isn't the case.
