Hey guys, thought we'd throw some N55 numbers on here from our OTS dyno testing session. Test car was a really sweet looking M235i Track Edition running 93 octane with the following performance related mods:

- Dinan intake
- Exhaust (N54 Tuning Downpipe with M2 midpipe and MPE Axle back muffler)
- GoFastBits DV+ diverter valve upgrade

So far all our N55 tuning has been done with test cars on the street in places all over the US, Canada and overseas. This was our first official dyno session here locally with an EWG N55.

The tune here is what we're calling a Stage 2 as the downpipe is on the car. Our recommendation is to change the FMIC first as the stock intercooler is barely up to snuff with the stock tune. It heatsoaks really quickly especially on the dyno with such poor airflow.

Ambient conditions were favourable in this case but starting IATs would range anywhere from 75F with a nice cooldown to 95F. Stock intercooler would see IATs rise in a single 4th gear pull by as much as 60-65F from where they'd start even at 14psi in the top end very similar to how the N54 OEM FMIC behaves and we strongly suggest changing that out as your very first N55 hardware mod, or go with meth

We managed to put down +55whp +133wtq over same day baseline done first on this car with all the current mods on it. Given tuning was was hampered due to the stock FMIC in the top end we believe simply switching to a quality aftermarket FMIC you'd easily see another 20-25whp on top from simply managing to keep IATs in check and being able to do 5th gear pulls instead of 4th.

Boost in midrange was in the 19-20psi range to hit these torque numbers with changes to ignition timing and fuel targets, no HPFP fuel pressure dropouts. We've got throttle open wide at 100% all the way through which removes any hesitation while under WOT that can be felt with many other current tunes out there. Keeping throttle at 100% has a positive effect on the overall tune/power as it doesn't disturb airflow entering the intake manifold and you see timing corrections that were previously there simply vanish



Once the intercooler is on this car we'll revisit for a Stage 2+FMIC 93 octane map. For 91 you're looking at a lower baseline to start with and on the tune side we'd lower ignition timing by about 1-3deg depending on RPM/boost and lower boost by a pound or two.

This was on a 6MT car. 8AT will be close to these numbers. It was great to see that an EWG N55 could hang with an N54 on pump gas with similar modifications as numbers are really close Let us know if any questions at all.

Dont the automatics have 8 gears not 6?

Saw this on Instagram great work guys! That midrange power must be a blast to drive!

This gives me hope for my bebby. I am really interested to see what an FMIC and say an E40 tune can yield. I have a feeling that with those two you could maybe get past the 400whp mark which would be simply ground breaking.

I have a feeling with just an FMIC there it'd be a 400 even on this dyno. Peak numbers though don't really matter as baselines vary. Look at the baseline on this car WITH the downpipe and intake. Many Dynojet graphs out there are showing baselines of stock cars with these numbers so with this particular car on this particular dyno we're starting lower than you'd see on average out there. Nice thing is while we have the pain on our end and can't show some glory peak numbers we always enjoy seeing any of our customers on higher reading Dynojets show higher numbers are we sandbagging here? Maybe you could say so, not intentionally though takeaway, always ask for the same dyno same day baseline if possible for anyone posting a dyno graph out there, or, just enjoy the newfound power and have fun!

I am lowkey not even wanting to dyno my car on a mustang dyno as I have a feeling numbers will be ludicrously low

Well done guys!!

Finally some 6mt love out here can't wait for the IOS app to get approved!

I have yet to see any PWG OEM turbo car to break 400 on a dynojet (or any dyno) without meth. Big turbo is the path.

You'd be better off running meth then doing e85 mixes if you want consistent power.

EWG cars are just a whole different animal.

My friend PWG Stock turbo RWD 6MT with E40 did 400whp/473wtq on Dynojet a few weeks ago no meth. F30_SixSpeed JB4 but now is coming over to Bootmod3

That's definitely cool for a PWG. News to me I haven't seen it posted anywhere.

I guess Chicken Joe can keep that hope aliveeeeee.

Don't want to thread jack. Here is the thread with all the info. As OP stated, I need to upgrade my intercooler too as temps were skyrocketing during the pulls.

Definitely cool shit

Dejan_ BM3 is impressive because its only on Pump :-D

I'm loving it so far. It's awesome Alex and Dzenno just make tweaks shoot it over to me and I upload and eat popcorn

[sly1types]

Do you have any dynos on E40?

[Rennyk.]

Stage 2 on shitty California 91 feels insane. Can't wait to get it on the dyno after I get my intercooler installed

[harkes]

Great. Finally some dyno results.

Now, where is that Pure Stg2 on 93???

[mr_kay]

I really should think about going BM3 from JB4.
