DrLeadFoot Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Todds e28 is spectacular =) It really is! Amazing car. Chemical Brothers leather cleaner and conditioner showed up today and were put to use. I just applied a second coat of conditioner to re-treat the dry spots. This leather is thirsty! The e46 is up next. I feel that this stuff will work out great. Jdesign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLeadFoot Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 The break up starts at 4100 rpm in 4th gear. The AFR drops to 10.5 to 10.9. Thoughts? Snap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunMetalGrey Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Isn't your bottom end fully built? Why not more power? Not that those numbers aren't impressive lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLeadFoot Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Might have something to do with the tune. I'm pretty happy with the 500wtq! That number didn't even cross my mind for the torque. Jdesign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLeadFoot Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Dyno run youtube video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGWG9hdezJo The zf320 has the 1:1 ratio in 5th gear so this was my car at 165mph!! It was deafening. While they were programing the Dyno Jet the only option that the computer had was a 2.93 diff setting. I'm running a 2.79. Would this change my numbers?

Yes, with the 2.79 calculated in, your numbers would be 496hp and 526ftlb. Did they enter the correct tire diameter? DrLeadFoot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they did. I wasn't over their shoulder the whole time. I like those numbers a little better!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLeadFoot Posted April 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Apparently the speed sensor is required to operate the ECU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLeadFoot Posted April 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I also need a cam sensor. I'm in the middle of totally redoing my bathroom, wrapping up wedding planning and trying to work in between all of this. Hectic but I love it!

DrLeadFoot Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Cam sensor replaced and confirmed that the code stayed off. We are all good except the speed sensor issue. I'll fix that when I replace the differential. B C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLeadFoot Posted May 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 I've been driving the car a lot! To do list: - Empty catch can. - Pop the new diff in and speed sensor. - Order new wheels and tires. - Get an alignment. - Clean wide band O2 sensor or order a new one if cleaning it doesn't work. - Put the hood back on.
