Proven: 160rwhp/200rwhp on a BUDGET

Murph335 · 11-07-2013, 08:29 PM

My CPO warranty recently expired on my 07. Debated whether to go M3, 09-10 E90, or something else. Decided performance, tech features, luxury, and overall TCO value cant be touch a N54 in the market today.

September 26th - last dealer visit for all kinds of warranty.
9/26 Dealer crashed my car

Prior to that week i was all over this and other forums gathering parts from the classifieds. All the parts started rolling in but no car.

3 weeks later Results in a free M-Tech bumper from Mod Bargains.

Rolled out of the body shop drove directly too goodspeed for a baseline dyno 265/300.

TODAY 11-7-2013
Power Mods: +160rwhp/+200rwtq
E30 ST Map Cobb AP - Mod Bargains Black Friday Sale years back.
5Gal E85 + 91 fill up - NEW! Valero
BMS SCI - Used $35 e90 Classifieds
AA FMIC - New e90 Classifieds
AR Downpipes - used e90 Classifieds
Ceramic Coating inside and out $100. AZ Custom Coatings, Tempe, AZ

Other Mods:
KMAC camber kit
M3 Front Control arm kit - My bushings went bad (86kmiles) Not a warranty item.
Rear M3 Subframe bushings - Ran out of time to install.
BMW OCC

HPDE on Saturday there will be a 2011 M3 in my group.

Driving impressions:
Didn't notice a drone with these AR pipes compared to CPe in a past round.
With the M3 arms the ride is harder can almost feel each tire tread as it spins.
Much better traction with the KMAC kit allowing me to go from -1.8 rear camber to -1.4.

Comments:
Goodspeed is known for their ESS blown M3 builds, and were blown away by these numbers for such a small $. They seem to think this will walk an M3.

Really excited to have the car back turbo spool is the best soundtrack!

Special thanks to the e90 community for great deals, and research! Also, GoodSpeed getting the project done right the FIRST time!

JMARS · 11-07-2013, 08:56 PM

So sick!! Love the graphs showing improvements! Have fun with it man, and let's try and keep it out of the body shop ;-)

Murph335 · 11-07-2013, 09:11 PM

Next Mod is to get the M3 bushings installed.
Then HFS-4, Tank, ChargePipe bundle for the extra cooling, and timing benefits.

kboss335 · 11-07-2013, 09:44 PM

I'm in Tempe too! Hopefully our e90's will meet up on the road one day haha

pobudz · 11-07-2013, 10:05 PM

I just hit 430/480, it's a good feeling

Good to see some other AZ folk hitting high numbers.

You are pulling some Pam Anderson torque curves there

Haha yeah it's the one at Scottsdale and McKellips. The 100 oct is always out of order. If you don't mind me asking, how were their labor rates at Goodspeed for install on everything? Looking to do the DP and FMIC as well soon and since I don't have access to a lift I figure it's best left to someone else.

wildcat767676 · 11-08-2013, 12:45 PM

Great post! Love your car. I need to go dyno mine there now... I have all the same mods plus Meth, mid pipe, and oil cooler.

I was gonna say just did the M3 arms front and rear, sub bushings, and FSB. Hell of a difference!! Definitely could walk on the M3's last track day. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. See you tomorrow...

Myrder · 11-08-2013, 01:12 PM

Nice information, which dealer did that to your car?! (you can PM) Also that torque curve is just giant. Noticed they let out just before 6000rpm correct?

Edit: I get my e85 at the texaco on 7th and indian school. $2.80 a gallon always.

335is808 · 11-08-2013, 03:56 PM

you would walk an m3 easy

I like your thinking all my present vehicles are turbo also, theres nothing like that hit of torque . I'm a boost addict if theres such a thing.

Murph335 · 11-08-2013, 07:47 PM

Exactly! Boost junkie. I've seen shirts Eat, Sleep, Boost.

On my commute home today as I'm steering to keep the car straight on the highway lol. XI option crossed my mind

. Your onto something with your xi.

Acekid187 · 11-09-2013, 01:06 AM

Sean335i · 11-10-2013, 09:58 AM
