I'll probably be down in OC again for the 4th of July next time so.. all these meets suck so far, I saw every-other-week meets would be better.

 

yea wello frist off I cant afford al lthat stuff and you had a drop in until you sold your car. Second off the apex-i n-1 downpipe gets rid of the cat and i dont want some big fat pipe coming off my car... the greddy type is is a lot more its liek 180 shipped and the crushed 1g i can picjk up for 40 you keep forgetting how mucch money i DONT have if i did trust me my car would be far from stock but I'm gonna do what i can when i can if I do anything

 

E36DJ reading your sig... could be wrong but I thought the E36 ///M3 pushed 240 hp? whys your sig only say 216?

 

e36 dj i believe it was you on 495 last week that my boy with another e36 red ran you and pulled on you and his car just has an intake but good run never the less if it was you

 

just do an electric cutout. thats what i lan on doing in the next few weeks. that means you can keep the exhaust stock looking but with the flip of a switch u can have the exhaust gases going from the down pipe straight into the open air w/o traveling through anything. i htink thats the best way to go if you want some more power but don't want noise all the time. only prob. is that when it is open is will be EXTREMELY loud.

To answer your question there is a difference between HP to the wheels and at the crank. Stock an e36 M3 has 240 at the crank, with Alex's preformance upgrades however he's prolly running around 220 at the wheels and even more at the crank. I don't know if he's gotten it on the dyno recently. I hope that answers your question.

It prolly wasn't Alex since he's got a suspended license. If it was someone else was driving and he was riding shotgun.

 

i deff agree... but when you run "open down pipe" when u switch it from stock exhaust to open in to the atmosphere it will sound really LOUD but on a good note you will be able to hear the turbo spooling and that will sound pretty sick.

 

thnx dsmspyder... I forgot about the whole crank deal wow do i feel stupid. Mike where are you getting your electric cutout done at? And jason as far as trhe downpipe idea is concerned I understand what you are saying about backpressure sorry not in the best mood the other day. But you I think I can still pick up that turboback for 600 I jsut dont want that huge 3 inch tip... anyone know of cuistom exhaust plave where I can keep the the N-1 piping but change the tip from something other than 3" and try to keep it looking stock?

 

Pulled on me..? You never pulled on me.. you never had your car.

Haha.. wasn't me though I don't think.
Nah with mild tranny loss thats around 260hp at the crank, like the sig says though I'm having air/fuel ratio issues for some reason, I think my mods should be good for another 10hp if I fix that.
edit: Grant, I threw it on the dyno in ocean city.

 

heres a suggestion.


Buy a cat back exhaust and down pipe either no cat or high flow cat. if your worried about how the muffler "tip" looks just go have a muffler shop bend and weld the piping for you and buy a universal muffler with the style YOU like. Besides if you do any bigger turbo then a T-25 ur going to need atleast 3 inch from the turbo back.
