Car sounds awesome.

I am in process of upgrading my E46M to either an ISF or an E92M and like seeing threads like this. Good perspective on potential gains with simple bolt ons.

Subbing for the tune.

Any butt dyno updates? Any change in overall drivability?

With so much pessimism about this tune, even including me; I can't tell lol. Sometimes when I WOT and the car and it felt faster, I refrained myself from thinking so. This way I wouldn't be so disappointed when the dyno sheet shows otherwise

My car is stock and it has it's "faster" days and it's slower days. Usually the traction control light blinks a bit extra on the faster days! Looking forward to the dyno #s..

400rwhp= roughly 500 crank if you do the 20% drivetrain lost. It's not 20% gain of the 400rwhp but rather the 20% lost from original crank hp to get to the 400rwhp.

Also there is no real way to know how much hp is lost to the drivetrain by the time it gets to the ground. General believe is 20% for Auto cars

I would say that our cars are close to a manual car once the transmission locks up. 20% is a good conservative benchmark, but many of us here have seen the ISF perform very well for its supposed Hp. I dont extensive experience with the understanding of exactly where power is wasted in transition to the ground so maybe someone more knowledgeable can chime in.

My IS-F baselined at 348whp so that translates to roughly 16.5 percent drivetrain loss from the crank rated 416. Considering our crank hp is rated roughly the same as an E90/92 M3 and we dyno similar if not more than manual/dual clutch M3's, I'd say our autos are pretty damn efficient.

Tomorrow. About 300 miles on the tune. We shall see. Haha that would be awesome if some can chip in to help out if it doesn't work. Thanks for the thought!
