Those figures seem fine to me too Kev. Dyno's are never going to be 100% accurate and yours is very close to the mark. Most engines will loose a few percent through their life, and yours has barely lost anything. Well done.

Yeah, I guess it's good to see it's close to factory spec. I think the K&N panel filter may be the reason for it running a bit lean. |
dump it!

yep, I just drop my intake and put back the stock airbox. filter didn't do much for performance and it's well known to have worst filstration properties so it was a bit of a no brainer for me!

Hey Stevo...!!!
Really sorry about not turning up, clutch gave up on me on friday night, so couldn't make it. Started slipping an awfull lot when accelereted, revs shot up but went nowhere in a hurry at all
Need to order one very soon as i am car less at the moment. Is it worth my while getting an uprated one? I hope to do the odd track day too so not sure whether to go standard or not. Where would be the best place to get one and how much would they cost?
Gutted i didn't see the 2002 on the rollers, saw it go in mondelo and she was some looney bus...
Really sorry again stevo and will hopefully see ya at a meet or event soon...

No bother Graham . There's an add in the 'new stuff' in this months Performance BMW mag about an uprated clutch for the e30 . I'll dig it out and let you know . Get a price from BMW for a genuine one and then i'll tell you if it makes sense upgrading .

After following Niall and yourself in the motorway on Saturday, I really do think you need some LED rear lights! The std lights look so uncool in comparison. Get your credit card out!
