What's the HP you're creating with e30 and meth? Isn't 300hp the "danger zone" on the n20/6?
Honestly bro not sure I don't have meth some other dude does with E60 lol but I mean I'd say 300whp If anything lol. I really want to get my car dynoed so bad already to lol. If you were to go on meth it will help a lot keeping the IAT's down a pretty good amount lol meth is always good lol. You can go up to 350who safely with upgraded rod bolts but you just got to install but would take a good minute to install bro lol.

Triple digit speeds are easy and smooth (BMWs at 80mph are barely noticing). I haven't driven a stock one back to back so it's hard to say. I"m use to the extra power my car has.......

300whp would be nice but pushing the engine I think. I didn't want to risk blowing up a warranty'd car so I went mild. I should re-dyno it on a cooler day and where the dyno computer wires aren't messed up. The dyno itself worked fine but my graph is garbage as the wires were messed up. To the shops credit, they allowed the car to take up the dyno while it got flashed, tested, flashed, tested..etc. and were chill sooo...I guess we're even lol.

I got mine tuned by Cary Jordan and did the dyno by maximum psi out in jersey, so my first run was about 270ish and he tuned it up to 300whp and 300tq,
I was hoping to be in the 350 but Cary said that my car was letting off on the fuel once it got in the high rpms. Now I don't know To believe that, I'm fbo and pure stage 2 turbos, fresh coils and sparks, I dunno what else there is to upgrade, but he did say my that my fuel injector timing was off, so I asked if I replace all my injectors would that give me a higher hp, the dyno place said it might/might not make a difference. So that kinda sucked and I'm not sure who to believe, wish there was really a specific tuner for the n20/26 platform I'm really trying to push it atleast to 350, when I used dragy before I got my turbos installed, no launch and straight away road no hills I did about 5.43, when I tried to do the same with my turbos I'm getting about the same timing around 5.3ish

Sounds to me like you need an upgraded HPFP. Same problem with the M2 (N55) once you get up there in power with upgraded turbo. Need to swap out the HPFP and if need be get an upgraded fuel rail system.

You really should measure 100-200 kph or 60-130 mph with dragy to clear things.

Thinking about hpfp,
And yes I need to redo the dragy times whenever I can borrow a dragy,
Dunno if they make any upgrades for the fuel rail for the n20/26 platform, if Yal know any I'm all ears,
And also got braum seats for both fronts,using regular seat belts,harness bar getting customed fitted soon,
Thing is do I need to upgrade my lpfp with my hpfp upgrade? Read many posts and articles to do both as doing one might be sufficient for the long run

For custom tune on the N20/26 motor it’s best you use Halim, the power will be better.
