Jakermc:
Are you happy with the guys that did the dyno? I'm going to get mine done next month-I just chipped mine yesterday with Steve W's product. I'm not familiar with dynos in the area.

OK, so 15% and 241 hp it is. What is interesting is that my set-up appears to lose its Euro advantage when compared to a U.S. car with similar mods, so maybe I still have a little more tuning to do. Nontheless, I am very happy with the initial results.
I also think it was Andial who did the intake work. I had seen some pictures of their work and it does look identical. The car came from California, not far from where they are located, so I think it's a pretty good guess to say it's their work. I only wish I had papers to link them to it, but unfortunately the car came without records of any kind. It was a gamble that paid off, I actually found this car on E-Bay. Steve W - Sounds like your chip is worth a try, I'll be sending you some e-mail. The rave reviews you have received here say a lot about your work and your level service. Ed - Tx Speedworks has a nice set-up, give them a try. They don't know much about P-Cars so they won't be able to tweek anything for you between runs, but the equipment is top notch. Good group of guys who work there as well. If you want to wait, I think I may be going back real soon to test Steve W's work in my car. I paid $40 for three pulls, but that was a special rate since it was a BMW club day. Not sure what the regular rate is.

If you sent Andial the VIN they might be willing to look it up for you and see --easy if they computerize the records, might be hard if not. Or if you knew the then owner they could easily look it up that way.

My stock USA spec 85 Carrera, with cat, ( except for the drilled airbox and K&N filter...and modded dual-out stock muffler) made 200 rwhp on a Dynojet 248C...but showed poor torque ( less than 175 ft-lbs).
Since that time, I've added a Euro pre-muffler, a Steve Wong chip, removed the front face of the air cleaner ( just a band now a la "cup"), added new cap and rotor, ..so I'm hoping for a noticable improvement when I go to re-dyno in the spring. ---Wil Ferch

Yep. It's RWHP/0.85. Congratulations, Jack.
