But surely you have to get the weight spot on, otherwise the power measurement will be out.....?

I dont reckon a guestimate will do.

Also, how repeatable is it? I think you'd need to do at least 5 runs, knock the highest and lowest off, and then average the other 3.

Even then I dont reckon the results are going to be very accurate.
318iS became MR2 Turbo became FTO GPX Mivec became Impreza became Rover 620Ti became Honda S2000 (current) became Fiesta 1.25 and 200SX Drift Slag (when the Honda has gone)

Karan wrote:yeh u r right.... what 0-60 times r u getting?

First run 0-60 was 8.4 sec
second run 7.9 sec

Had to change to third just before sixty!!!

On the first run I carried on to 1/4 mile and got 16.5 sec, on the second I didn;t carry on

So am I about right for almost standard 325i??? (just got zone chip, filter and b/box)

My average over about 10 runs was 6.95 to 60 and 15.4 on the 1/4....

There was a thread somewhere about what times people had been getting when the craze began.....
