N51 build - Dyno tune - stage fabrication and performance

I purchased my bmw 2011 328xi A/T 4 years ago with 32k miles. This past weekend it rolled over 115k putting on 1100 miles traveling from Long Island down to Stage Fabrication and Performance run by Bob + Phill. The car has the following engine modifications. AA headers , custom secondary cat delete , charcoal delete , k + n filter , silicone intake tubing, 3 stage manifold ( n51 ) , Bmw performance exhaust and a vibrant ultra quiet resonator, XDelete. The final results were as following. The next step is to do milvs and get a retune this spring. This is the link to the dyno pull. https://youtu.be/eWPjP1k-8H8

Auto and manual are a big difference power wise. Manuals usually read 10-20 whp more

220 whp/tq seem like pretty good numbers based on n51s of the past. Nice work!

Do you have a dyno pre-mods? Interested to hear the delta.

Nice! I dyno'd at 210whp and 200wtq with almost similar mods, but RWD only. I'm sure if I was local to Bob I'd get more power.

Might as well do a full conversion to get rid of those useless components.

yeah I'm sure he could get a bit more torque of your car if it was on the dyno. car feels completely changed.
