Pokey's Z4M Build #2

pokeybritches · 04-09-2021, 02:10 AM

I took my car by the dyno for some tuning. 516 whp! Power mods:
- Legacy ESS VT2-500 supercharger kit
- 2.87” pulley (stock was 3.12")
- Hellcat fuel pump
- FIC 650cc injectors
- CPI stepped headers
- DKF s-pipe with resonators
- Supersprint x-pipe
- Supersprint Powerloops
- Custom intake

Additionally I have:
- BC Forged RS31 18" wheels (9" front / 10" rear)
- Hankook RS3 tires (255/35/18 and 275/35/18)
- Bilstein PSS10 coilovers
- Vibra Technics engine mounts
- Tial QRJ bypass valve conversion
- Colder range plugs gapped to .030"

This car originally made 397 whp with the stock exhaust and canned supercharger tune. It's amazing what a free-flow exhaust and good fuel can do! Any questions, feel free to ask.

Power delivery is super smooth... it's not violent at all. It's like stock but with so much more.

Thanks Dave! Exhaust mods and aftermarket tune brought it up to 417 whp. Then E85, more boost, and my tune brought it to what it is now. I haven't tried the water/meth kit yet, so I think there's even more to be had.
