[Karan]

toby took me for a spin in his car and bloody hell it pulls like a train!!!

[oakey]

[oakey]

Heres my printouts. Well chuffed with the result considering its running a standard head/cam and its not been properly mapped on a dyno yet
Well over 220ftlb of torque

[Gunni]

Good day gents.

Some amazingly low mileage cars at the dyno today, very impressed.

Toby´s car has AMAZING potential. 295hp at 7psi with a "2.5, small turbo and according to him a bad manifold.
And Oakey´s 2.7 made very nice figures as well.

I see high numbers for E30´s and UK BMW´s soon

[Ric_Vezza]

Some good pics and vids dave

shame wasn't a full turnout!
Good day none the less. (even tho my figures were a bit disapointment )

[bss325i]

Great pics dave, some nice ones of mine! Look forward to another when i've done some mods.

[bss325i]

Just noticed, no pics of the shark nosed 5's! Jamie's (jam172) 528i was looking minty fresh as usual!

I took loads of pics of most of the cars but I was soo cold that almost all of them were blurry as feck! Did you notice how shaky my camera footage is on the vids

[Toby_Unna]

i'm liking the torque plateau between 3500 and 4750rpm

[daimlerman]

Nice piccys Oakey,where's one of my sleeper? Notice you only show the 'good' side of yours.....

There is no good side! lol

Ive got a few but theyre blurry

here y'are:

[daimlerman]

Hey,you gave me lots of help when I was planning and building my engine,it was good to put a face to the name. Your wheels looked very cool,shame that you had problems at the end of the day.Those '5's looked mean,wish that I had never sold mine..just imagine,a 520i with a 2.7...

[daimlerman]

Thanks Oakey,I have just printed one off,now 'er indoors might just belive me....

Toby your car's a beast

Was good to meet you and thanks for giving me your dads screwdriver

[Toby_Unna]

i'll mention that you said thanks next time he's trying to replace a fuse and can't find it

glad you got home ok anyway, good to meet you. had a pretty dismal run back up the M1 as it soon started raining - and despite the resulting light footed-ness the b@stard still ended up burning 55 quid's worth of unleaded today

[reggid]

Heres my printouts. Well chuffed with the result considering its running a standard head/cam and its not been properly mapped on a dyno yet
Well over 220ftlb of torque

what mods you got? I thought you had a bexleys built car with gasflowed head and mild cam swap?

[Jhonno]

is that Karan's m5 engined thing i see? what did it put out?

[Gunni]

295hp and 244lbs torque

It is running standard 325i head at the moment. I removed my gasflowed one ready for a rebuild with lairier cam ready for the individual throttle bodies after head gasket problems.

At the moment its basically just a bexleys built bottom end running on Megasquirt with wasted spark. No afm etc..

Bexleys only built bottom end BTW.

With a mental cam, ITB's and a good bit of mapping I'm hoping for a nice power figure

[Ant]

Good day, good figs, all good !

Dave, thats pretty decent if I say so myself

I'll be hooking up with toby to get that beasty 100% in the near future

[maxfield]

Good day none the less. (even tho my figures were a bit disapointment )

Your car was the best sounding car there though

What were the figures, 220hp? Not sure about the engine specs.

Looks a great day!

From the front his sounds the best. Exhaust note from the six's is unbeatable

I think the 320is put down a dissapointing 180ish hp? about 140ftlb I think

[maxfield]

180 at the wheels?

[oakey]

180 at the wheels?

No. Thats why it was dissapointing. I think he would have been chuffed with 180@wheels. The fuelling was out apparently.

I think bss325 sport put out more power and torque

[maxfield]

That needs some cams and a remap

[oakey]

It definately does. Thats what his plans are- remap and cams

Daimlermans 2.7 has potential for more power also. He should gain a few more ponies easily once he gets the fuelling sorted.

[Karan]

is that Karan's m5 engined thing i see? what did it put out?

296 and 265lb

[jam172]

I really enjoyed the day, Sal and his team were very professional and easy to talk to, so a very big thanks to them and Barry for organising the day.

Weather wise i have not been so cold in a very long time, and i think that was the same for most people.

It was really good to meet everyone, thanks for making it a great day.

Just for the record, 184.9BHP and 190 torque, very pleased from a 20 year old E28 528i with only mods being manifold and s/s system:

[oakey]

^ Theres the old minter!

[M5pilot]

That is one very very nice E28 which makes a fantastic noise.

Look forward to seeing the M5.

Sal

Sooner than you think Sal, i would love to have it remaped, perhaps you could PM me some approx: costs when you get time?

Thanks again to you and your team, us old E28 Gits really enjoyed the day.

I love dyno results
