...on that dyno, in the aformentioned wretchedly hot and humid environment with no cooling...


While we're at it, can you also hand time us a 0-60 run? While going through 5 inches of water?


This data is going to be horribly skewed and will likely look terrible.

What model is that on? 545i, I would have to assume. What type of Transmission. The Auto has more losses than the stick.

If it was a standard, what gear did they run it in? I have always tryed for 1:1 ratio if available or the closest to it.

Thanks for any additional info.

Regards, Michael

In my case they used 3rd gear.

From looking at his posts, I can see that he has a 545i.

RE; Auto Vs. Stick

I don't think it matters since the auto torque converter is locked up with a clutch which would eliminate loss there. According to ZF doc I saw, it is capable of locking up in all six gears and in my experience it seems to do that.
