Calling All S/c 323's 0-60 Times

[Bm3238u]

it would be interesting to see the s/c'ed 323's 0-60 times.i have a 323ci,5 spd,extreactors,larger injectors,m3 flywheel,custom quad exaust,vortech charger@10psi.with this setup the car is not running at full potential,living in australia,we go by kms,so 0-60 equals 0-100kms.my current time is 5.8 secs with 20" wheels (which slow my time)not bad i guess

[Evil330]

5.8secs? I don't think so...

You'll be lucky if you get 6.2/6.3

[e popa]

never tried 0 60? maybe I will and see what I come up with.

Where did you whip that number up from? A stock 323 5spd according to bmw's official numbers does 0-60 in 7.1sec with numerous members here and magazine tests showing thats even understated. Considering this member is running a higher 10psi setup...5.8 is very possible and its def. his rims thats holding him back.

even though my car is running worse than before now,i will see if i can come up with a vid for you,judge for yourself.:thumbup:

[boostedbimmer]

Sorry not a the 323ci...................nice to dream though. Put 15" wheels and go downhill with a tailwind and maybe you'll get there.

[e popa]

:hmm:

Wtf are you talking about? Shut up for the sake of all of us please.

0-60 is a retarded measurement, 1/4 mile is a much better way to measure acceleration.

PS-your extra .3 liters makes you car a ****ing beast!

I completey agree...0-60 is so pointless...it all depends on gearing.

Take an m5 for example...it does 0 - 60 in 4.1 - 4.5 seconds...people think ohhhh thats so slow for 500hp...But that car pulls away from nearly anything as the speeds increase..

ok.lets make a deal.........you pm me on how to post a vid(i am ####king hopeless)and i will prove it...what do you reckon?hey........it could of been a really cold day when i timed it...........i punch it...you count it.....1/4 mile as well....of course it wont be 100% but heck..ball park at least...DEAL?:thumbup:

[Bm3238u]

Thank You.

Can't wait to see this

[Bm3238u]

Can't wait to see this
In what way do you mean that?

[anakbabe]

With the number you posted @ 10psi... it is very possible...

Might want to watch your internals though... :)

Do your research. The 323 and 325 have almost exactly the same 0-60 performance. Why is that? Because both are 2.5l I6 engines with almost the same torque ratings and very close horsepower ratings. Actually, the M52TU has a slightly higher torque rating than that of the M54TU :thumbup:

[Activ3]

I believe him..

[Bm3238u]

workin on the vid guys.have patience

[bigstu4now]

I heard from a my 330i thread on SCing, that our engines are only made for about 8 psi max........otherwise you would have to change other things like the engine internals.........did you do that or are you just trying your luck with 10psi and stock internals?

my mechanic hasnt mentioned anything like to me,we havent changed anything .also my car has done 130k so i think it would on its way!

I was under the impression that the engine can withstand around 400 horsepower max. That would explain why Technic's Stage 3 does not require building up the engine.

:confused: ZHP stock will do it in 5.8-5.9 I think. Why not a S/C 323ci... ?

He meant extractors.

Imagine Fosters commercial. Guy speaking in Australian accent:










Extractors.












Australian for headers. :thanks:

ah

[bimmer328ci]

Well hey first of all a stock 330i Zhp when being tested by car and driver did 0-60 in 5.6 and 1/4mile in 14.3 at 97.

My car is a 328ci which i know weighs less than that 330i and using a G-tech pro without launching the car i was able to get a 0-60 in 6.2 and that is with 19 inch wheels. That is with 187whp and 194wtq. After i learned how to launch the car i raced some 330 zhp's and took them of the line and had atleast a car length by 60. Now i of course have torque which that supercharged 323 doesnt and i also dont have 20 inch wheels but i bet that car could just about do it in 5.8.

well at the moment my car needs a major dyno tune.it has just got a new piggy back ecu.despite this i tested it also with a g-tech pro.the launch was too big,and for about 5 metres went sideways.0-60 was 5.7,and 1/4 mile was 13.78.i was expecting 1/4 mile to be in the mid 14's.how accurate are these g techs anyway?

[bimmer328ci]

actually it seems that gtechs are very accurate atleast from what i know. One of the tests i did was on my sister 2003 Rav4 L and i recorded identical numbers to what every magazine had on the car, so i would think that they are very accurate. I dont really know though because on my car with the 0-60 in 6.2 without a launch i recorded the 1/4 mile in 14.7 at 98. I also forgot to say i had a passenger and something like half to a full tank of gas. To be as accurate as possible you really need a very flat and straight road and good surface for it to.

[vaio76109]

Gtech's aren't that accurate. They can be, but you have to know how to "tune" it.

[bimmer328ci]

i got mine accurate but then i have dyno's for my car so i can do that but for other ppl itll be hard
