Slammed Dinan S/C E46 M3 on a Dyno

[junjdm]

that is hardly 'slammed.' looks great though!

I agree.....looks semi dropped....

Bro, on a DD no it doesn't translate to 240 at the crank. You would be using a 12% drive train loss.
This dyno is known to read low, but also accurate.

Most people I know who run DD's use this site to translate to crank hp http://www.to4r.com/calcs/enginecalc.php type in 214 and see what you get at the crank. It probably says 293.15

Bwahahahahaha...... you must be a ricer at heart.

So your E36 M3 is rated stock at 240bhp right.

Intake +15hp
No cats +20hp
Gutted muffler +15hp

= 290bhp

Right, that makes sense. Maybe thats how you roll in Canada

FYI, most bone stock E36 M3s make 205-210rwhp BONE STOCK which equates to around 14-16% drivetrain loss which is pretty normal. You may have picked up a few hp from your mods but you DO NOT make 290+ bhp. Maybe 250

lol 214rwhp translates to like 240 to the crank bro. Or in other words, a stock E36 M3
And what is wrong with the E46? Stock E46 M3s dyno around 280rwhp.

Ok the car is not "slammed" Tough crowd. If he was any lower he'd be scraping everything. I don't think if you drove that car you would drive stupidly low.

As for the steering wheel he had it custom done, it's the stock one but modified and reupholstered.

And for those who can appreciate the car for what it is and the pics for what they are thanks.

[Flavourless]

Agreed, that car isn't slammed, but it does look really nice.

[Burn535i]

That steering wheel is amazing. What one is it

[SeanDub]

that is hardly 'slammed.'

.

[Skillz]

What steering wheels is that ?!

HAWT!

[driftsucky]

I'm a bit disappointed with the HP numbers of that E46, but both cars are pretty awesome.

[MikeG]

that seems like an aweful lot of drivetrain loss....

and the interior on that E46 is godaweful

[Richard_Gud.]

that interior on the first one!

[gumballer_80]

dude seriously? I don't see ANY straps on them cars, while I would assume that was due to no loss hp for having them torqued down.....still scary imho lol
nice numbers all the same, jsut make sure you DO NOT stand in front of any car on their dyno...

This.

Both cars are awesome still!
Great pics. too!
