That's a "Harry Fix". I had the same thing & contacted Harry. (it's some, not all type of thing)

Envy: Nice "av"

Reset it Harry , i would love to see my car #1 once again, specially cause what im doing to it now

well, looks like my car jumped 11 places

BTW - 219HP for an M3 is very reasonable, out of the gate they rate at 199-205HP.

328s don't even get that, they are 158-168 and if you really do a lot to them they hit up to the 199 area.

Not bagging your car. I love M3's, I'm just a fan of real power and size.

thats whp, not bhp. 219whp = ~260hp, and thats not a 328 number.
now what is this ranking deal and how do i sign up? explain yourselves.

Do you mean rwhp? i.e rear wheel horse power?

Still 219 rwhp is not much for an M3. Mine has 229rwhp. An E36 M3 with a 3.2l motor should be 321hp (flywheel), so through the manual gearbox, you should be closer to 255rwhp.

I could always be wrong as the US motors are detuned from the Euro spec's.

yeah, they are. i believe the E36 M3 in the States was only 240bhp. . .

321hp and 333hp = euro motors
us motors both the 3.0 and 3.2l =240bhp or ~198whp
so 219whp is pretty good for a mostly stock motor.
mine was putting out ~236whp with an exaust, cai, m50 manifold and dyno tuning, remember mine is a high compression engine hence the higher numbers.

**ChrisWorrell** · 05-25-2006, 04:13 PM

I am putting down 265rwhp....granted i drive a mustang, so this post was...well pointless
