Well I've got headers I have still yet to install. That may be one diy I may take to the shop. Then after that really not much I can do but a better exhaust. I should probably set aside some money every month for a supercharger. Or pay techniquetuning lots of money for a turbo setup for the 328i. It shouldn't be too hard since they have a kit for the e36 328i, which is basically the same engine but with single vanos.

I wouldn't be able to tell from that, but it looks like it's pulling ignition timing, probably the knock sensors hearing too much "noise." I would flash to stock and get the newest software update from the dealer and then load my shark back on.

Edit. Looked at the wrong dyno, actually yours looks fairly healthy.

Name: jared_wiesner
Car/Engine: E46/M52tuB28
Mods: M54B30 intake manifold swap, Ebay headers, True Long Tube CAI /w Bpi Flow Stack, Rogue Engineering Power Pullies, IAT relocate, Epic Motorsports Tune
Dyno type: Dynojet
Peak numbers:195 whp/ 187 wtq

Dyno runs are with Epic tune and after un-flashing Epic Tune
Don't read into this too much yet, other factors may be at play like my restricted exhaust and the fact that residual adaptations from the Epic tune may have been still there after un-flashing it. Last dyno with the same mods, in albeit in different conditions showed a best run of 188 whp.

Run 5 with, Run 10 withoutv

Name: stosh1
Car/Engine: E46/S54
Mods: Modified Head, Schrick Stg II Cams, CSL Intake, Custom Tune
Peak numbers: 362WHP/265WTQ
Dyno type: Dyno Dynamics

FYI: Car baselined at around 304HP w/full bolt-ons and a tune on the very same dyno. The dyno is calibrated to approximate Dynojet numbers, although it does read slightly lower than most Dynojets in the area.

Meh, could be, but the graph will usually spike a little bit (or a lot in some cases) when timing is being pulled and his curve looks pretty smooth. I believe that he also said that the temps were on the cool side, which would help fight off detonation/prevent timing from being pulled.
