not sure if your aware of this but he already has the "325->330 mod" on his car so the dyno is all we need to do in order to confirm that evotech came through on their part

just said it has a bit more kick, thats it

if there's verifiable dynos... i'm sure lots of ppl would have cash in hand (myself included)

but till then.... who knows....

FinnVette · 03-16-2007, 06:34 PM

Guys,

I have been busy with my work this week, but I have not heard back from Creative either. Maybe it's the spring break...

Hunter399 · 03-16-2007, 06:37 PM

I might try the accelerometer trick this weekend, but please don't take this as a promise...

Hunter399 · 03-16-2007, 07:07 PM

just get that thing on the dyno asap!

Del@Creative · 03-16-2007, 07:09 PM

Alex from Creative will be returning back to Texas next week. We must have forgotten to post. No worries we've got you on our minds haha. We would like to set up a dyno shortly

as soon as the dyno happens and is posted, its going to be a busy thread.
if theres a vendor that wants to get some big money, they should start a GB on 3stage intake manifolds...

Joe Bimmer · 03-19-2007, 11:32 AM

Have you at least been able to verify that the flaps on the intake are moving?

Thats what they should be investigating....

FinnVette · 03-19-2007, 09:10 PM

Well, I think the flaps where moving already before the ECU tune. If you put your hand to where the flaps are and turn the ignition on, you can feel them moving. In case they would not move during driving you should see a noticeable decrease in power in some power band, depending on which stage they would be stuck.

I don't drive the Bimmer that often because it's my wife's car, but even she thinks it has more power.

That being the case, I'm quite confident the power is there.

Back to back dyno with standard ECU will confirm this.

Btw, I couldn't find the damn accelerometer last weekend.

Not Ur Avg 3 · 03-19-2007, 09:44 PM

i say that as a temporary substitute for a dyno
can u get ur hands on like a G-Timer?
just time the cars 0-60mph with the ECU and without the ECU.
easily done with the timer, and u can take a picture of the old time and new time and post it here asap.
i think that a significant increase in power should show some difference in time.
although not as accurate as dyno, its something? just imo..

esbezee92 · 03-19-2007, 11:32 PM

only problem with that is that g-timers dont exactly grow on trees so hopefully someone in dallas can lend him one for all of our benifits
