Idk, the guy who took it for a drive is like a 60 something yr old man, just doesnt seem like the type to beat on it, but I guess you never know lol, when I worked for Infinity when I was 18 I took my work shirt off and picked bitches up in the G37 convertible for hours and came back and no one ever knew I was gone lol.

Not really sure, to be honest, this is only the second car I’ve personally ever taken to get dyno’d and dont know how to read anything but the end power/tq… I remember Morgan sounding surprised about the torque being so “instant” but thats about it.

The car Bob brought over made good power over OEM. There was not that much work involved and it was not absurdly expensive, either. I dont know much beyond that, I’m not a BMW guy. Have you checked for feedback on BMW forums? I kinda only know Audi/VW/Porsche tuners.

no. and that’s not why the plot is all curly-cued like that either. ask the guy who dyno’d it why, I’m pretty sure he’s explained it on here before. or someone has. has to do with the smoothing or something? IDK.

the curley-q at the beginning is just the dyno loading… many times you don’t see it on the graph b/c the tuner will start recording 500-1000 rpm later than what ever rpm he sets the dyno to load :thumbup any chance for the “after” dyno today?
