Guys,

Did a Dyno today at RS Dyno. Impressive figures i have to say, and these numbers are based on actual power, and not on wheel. The exhaust and K&N does make a diff..I was compared to another 320D powerkitted and I trumped in by 10 extra horses..

Hahaha I leech off my old VW mates when they do a group dyno session, its cheaper that way hehehe

Here is the chart from the Dyno session

 

[Mavik]

That's awesome! So 250 on engine minus around 15% transmission loss should equate to around 215whp. Awesome figures man, now I am tempted to get the exhaust as well haha!

thanks for sharing, bro. from 184 to 250! amazing!
how did your torque values fare?

 

[carlsson]

475.2 Nm at 3500 revs!

i know man...great power of the diesel and fuel economy too!

[jwah]

Why don't you check on Wheel?

 

[carlsson]

machine was set up for engine power, which is what the numbers for all cars are listed anyways..
just minus the percentage as what Mavik said and you have the on wheel

Why don't you check on Wheel?

Just reinserted my Vector chip (went in for servicing yesterday).........the 320d is not the same without it!

 

[jwah]

doc, service how much and what have you done?

 

[rattlesnake1982]

The additional 10 extra horses is due to the K&N filters or the performance exhaust? or combination of both?

 

[docrayboy]

doc, service how much and what have you done?

Normal service at Quill....MR644....oil change, oil filter changed n diagnostic scoped the car.

for sharing, here are some dyno results from this morning on my 2010 performance edition 184hp/380Nm beast.
the values are on-wheel, so they're about +/-85% of engine figures.

stock values are 173hp/375Nm, which is pretty much smack on the rated numbers (BMW does not lie :4, but ON WHEEL! you can do the math to get back to engine figures...
best figures from the 4 maps are 201hp/471Nm...which is quite astounding. Amazing what a small little box can do. Best investment to date for me, for some added oomph to the ever insatiable lust for more kick.

Here are the curves for your viewing pleasure. interesting to note that there seems to be some cut off at around the 3700rpm mark in the stock setup, which immediately cuts the power/torque curves. anyone know what this is?

Had a taiko 5-series, who also recently went to the dark side with me, and DTUK-ed his beast. have asked his permission, and he's happy to share his sexy curves with everyone too. same 184hp engine with the only difference being his 8 speed gearbox, resulting in much smoother curves. pretty much the same results too - max power in excess of 200hp, max torque went up by 100Nms from stock!

hee hee hee :rock::rock::rock:

 

[carlsson]

hard to tell..!could be one or the other, but i suspect it was more of the exhaust

The additional 10 extra horses is due to the K&N filters or the performance exhaust? or combination of both?

 

[namidub]

so are you satisfied with the exhaust bro? have others fitted as well? am thinking of getting the BMW Perf exhaust too.

OMG..!! So my Butt Dyno so far is correct lah..!! I always tot the box gave me placebo effect... so Malaysian Diesel, our high ambient temp and high humidity doesnt really affect the final BMW E90d engine performance. Good to know.and Maniac's car already a seasoned beast.. so the saying the Malaysia Diesel will 'kill' the engine is not proven true. As Mythbuster always says ' BUSTED'.

Me proud to be a DaTUK..

 

[mikeyC]

Just curious, DTUK and Vector Tuning box, what are the differences? In term of performance and installation? Anyone ever do the comparison on dyno?

 

[kong]

DTUK takes 2 parameters to do the mapping. Fuel rail/manifold pressure and Turbo boost pressure.
Vector only uses 1 parameter, which is the Fuel pressure only.
Ultimately, it modifies the fuel supplied to the injector,giving the engine the fuel flow according the new intended characteristic.
Advanced tuning box uses 3 parameters. Fuel pressure, turbo boost pressure and engine flywheel speed. This will result in finer tuning of the map.

But in the end, it all depands on your liking lah....

Today met first time with derek, distributor of vektor in bolehland. Nice guy, gave me the vector tuning chip for me to try for few days without charge...first with setting 4....hmm seems like no difference one, then change to setting 7, still dont really feel the kick like all the bros here claim...is there something wrong? Mine is the 184hp version...or must wait for few day let the tuning box learn our driving style?

Awesome stuff bro! Quite interesting to see that the torque is quite drastic at 3.7k rpm, usually torque just tapers down but the graph shows a sudden drop. Great figures especially with our high humidity and heat here man.
