Would you want detailed pics of your hard work published so some offshore company could copy your design and put you under? Dyno charts don't always mean squat. I've seen many engines turn huge dyno numbers and suck for any other purpose. I'd rather see a set of 6 1/4 mile run time slips with and without the blower. AND have someone drive one from Florida to the west cost just to show they can.... Just my .02 bucks worth.... Worth at least what you paid for it Dave __________________ Dave - PDX 1995 318ti - Active Black and Tan. 2005 330xi - Mtech 1 - 6spd - Orient Blue/Black | | | 08-04-2005, 07:14 AM | #32 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Indiana Posts: 256 | Nice Nissian Frontier S/C, with modified stock lower intake manifold. | | | 08-04-2005, 01:50 PM | #33 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | That is why I love a powerful four banger, it's unassuming!

Put it on a 152,000 mile motor with all the upgrades and I promise to drive the crap out of it and video tape it. I will also take it to the drag strip and auto-x it. See the only problem is I need a free one . | | | 08-05-2005, 01:52 PM | #35 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | OOOOOOOH......I love a guinea pig Quote: Originally Posted by AlaskaBlue I volunteer to test the kit.

Chad has a dyno chart of his DASC'd 318ti (RIP) somewhere in his gallery. I'm going to guess that the performance from this kit will be similar, if not identical to the DASC. They use the same Eaton charger and the same basic non-intercooled design. Keep in mind that the 220 hp that KO is claiming is at the crank. There is no way to get 220 hp to the wheels with only 7.5 psi, unless you add some Nitrous to that mixture. You will probably see 160-180 hp at the wheels. That might seem low, but it's a 40% increase in power, which is pretty huge for a car that only weights ~2800lbs. If you wheel dynoed a stock ti, you'd probably only see ~110 hp. I have a couple videos on my website if you want to see what a supercharged ti does (in circles anyways). http://180customs.net/video/BMW-WI-Donuts.wmv | Have you other videos of 318's supercharged (dasc, custom, this...) I searched them but I have find nothing | | | 08-07-2005, 06:42 PM | #42 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Detroit, MI Posts: 585 | Quote: Originally Posted by AlaskaBlue I volunteer to test the kit.

Two volunteers, completely unbiased, high milage cars, obd-I, and obd-II. Promise for independent videos, independent dyno, and indepndent racing. What could be a better test and show of faith? Putting the kit on the line with daily driven and weekend raced cars. Showing the 318xx community what our cars can do with a little FI, it is the perfect test. | | | 08-12-2005, 11:19 PM | #44 | Member Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: South Florida Posts: 32 | Ok ladies, here is the dyno, keep in mind we are located in Miami and ambiant temp. plays a role in HP figures. KO s/c 96 z3 1.9l M44 vs stock 97 Z3 1.9l M44. | | | 08-13-2005, 12:02 AM | #45 | Member Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: South Florida Posts: 32 | | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
