              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.

                The break up starts at 4100 rpm in 4th gear.  The AFR drops to 10.5 to 10.9.  Thoughts?  Snap?

                    Gonna see you down in Chicago tomorrow rain or shine?

                    Debating on taking the E30 or E39 depending on the weather and if the wife comes with me.

                            Isn't your bottom end fully built? Why not more power?

                            Not that those numbers aren't impressive lol

                              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.

                                Here are some pics of the eventful weekend. Dyno day and Chicago E30 Meet.

                                s52 swap on the red one and an m54 swap on the M-tech 2 vert. Both very clean swaps.

                                Back in MKE. No problems all weekend except for my tune which needs tweaking.

                                  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?

                                        I think they did.  I wasn't over their shoulder the whole time.

                                        I like those numbers a little better!!!!

                                          Was facebook messaging with a guy from Door County yesterday.  He has 2 e30 M3 and a S52 swapped e30!!  The m3's have CF intakes, ported heads and cams.
