Vishnu on Autoweek

Hey guys and gals.. I saw this article on Autoweek (Evo and 335i)

http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dl.../70315001/1004

Zoeb--I don't recall the state of your relationship with Vishnu/Shiv but if it is good, are you one of the beta testers?

Best ask Zoeb, I am not at liberty to post his results but he has the graphs so may post them if you ask him.

I will say that it's a awesome sleeper as it sounds so quiet and runs so smooth, another thing as well is it was very well tuned with the power being repeatable from run to run and not a hint of anything bad going on.

I have always been a fan of bmws and I am glad to see them come out with the 335i.. My only complaint other than the fact that I don't have one... I think it needs a limited slip.

I wonder if Zoeb is thinking Quaife.

I just wish that bmw would bring the 120d or 130i here in its current wagon/hatchback form.

guess not. I never understood why but whatever. I will post mine. I am sure I am well under his numbers though. I am proud that at least my numbers are real, even though they are low.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Hell I think he wrote it. I can hear every word pouring out of his mouth. *****.

I dont have the graph on me so I can't scan it but the #'s were 275whp and 335 ft lbs @ 3K RPMS

Mike was saying that it reads pretty low on the mustang because the rear wheels spin the front rollers and front wheels as well.

I'm gonna dyno it on a dyno dynamics eventually as well, that # will be a slightly more accurate # as far as what its actually putting down to the rear wheels
