2008 335i 0-60 times 5.6 :( how do I improve my stock times?

Whateva · 07-17-2014, 12:34 PM

I used dashboard command app with my 357 ELM OBII wifi and got a best 0-60 of 5.6.

My ride is an all stock 6AT minus a Alpina flash and I was in sport mode. Should it be a lower 5 second time? If so, could new spark plugs and a carbon clean lower those times significantly? Where are other areas I can look at while keeping it stock to improve 0-60 times?

Something I want to mention is that I don't think dash command is accurate either when it's telling me I'm producing 800+ Foot pounds of torque

Should be slightly lower. If its OBD its not completely accurate since it goes based on wheel rotation if I'm not mistaken.

Get a better way to record your 0-60, am sure it will give you better times

Any suggestions on DIY recording of 0-60 that is digital and accurate? Also, JB+ coming my way so that should help.

Look into the VBOX

I have a cobb and use that to record times...it seems pretty accurate. Best way to really see it is to go to the drag strip and they will record it for you. Others like The performance box from Racelogic will work but I think its pricey

So why not the JB4 if you're looking into lowering your 0-60 time? Tires still have grip from start or getting some spinning?

I have RFT which definitely are making my times higher. JB4 is probably in the making for me now that I have tried my JB+. Initial install at 100% no bypass ran like shit and threw error code p0015. Cleared that out with dash command and then dialed it back to 50%. Much faster than stock but didn't 0-60 it. Moved up to 75% yesterday and have not allowed for adaption time but here is my new 0-60 using the same tool dash command.
