Model: 1987 BMW 535is
Engine: Personally built M30B35 high-compression (10:1) motor
• B34 block bored to 92.5mm
• B35 head, rods, springs, crank, manifold
• Paul Burke B35 10.5:1 "806" M30B35 CNC Dome piston set
• Paul Burke "mild" N21 camshaft (282/279)
• 24lbs injectors
• 179 ECU, Miller MAF, Miller WAR chip
• Ireland Engineering adjustable fuel pressure regulator
• Bavarian Auto ceramic coated headers
• Ireland Engineering exhaust
Today's Numbers: 203 rwhp / 225 rwtq.
Miller MAF Tuned 8-19-2014The original B34 that was in the car (which is for sale!) put out a respectable 173 rwhp and 188 rwtq. Un-tuned, with a stock 179 ECU and AFM, the B35 put out 196 rwhp/216 rwtq.
I'm quite happy with these numbers and even happier with the way the car is running.
The Miller WAR software is pretty dated and makes me jones for a Megasquirt now that I actually know what I'm doing. The idea that you can tune in real-time is pretty appealing. Maybe that will be a future project.
