Hi guys,

Does anyone have a dyno of both an auto and manual R56 from the same day / same dyno? With or without mods.

Thanks,

T

 

Would also be curious to see this, although I doubt it has been done. There seems to be a lack of independent dyno plots for the R56 in general. Let alone finding two from the same day and same dyno.

 

Should be the same. Regardless of how the power gets there. The late model AT are very good at minimizing HP losses through the trans. We have one coming in soon. So we will post up ASAP!

 

I'm getting my auto MCS dyno'd this spring. Wanted to get a few miles on the motor. Most auto's lose a significant amout of HP from drivetrain loss. At least this is what I have seen in the past (C32 AMG and S4). Auto's are tough to get a good reading on because the ECU wants to activate the kick down. You usually can only push the car to approximately 90%.You should see a slight dip (kickdown) at the top end of the curve when its the plotted.

The type of dyno used also makes a difference but we aren't going there. Suspension and tires also influence the difference. Don't use winter tires!!

 

Great news! Is that the Clubman you've been talking about or another R56???

Hmmm, so with it in the shop, I take it you guys will be trying out the PnP ECU on it!?!

 

I decided just to order a manual since it will be a shop car anyway. Can't wait to get my hands dirty!

 

Different local client. Clubman is a stick that is coming. We will be putting the PnP on the local AT at the same time we put it on the dyno.

Very exciting!

 

Awesome! Now this I cannot wait to hear more about.

 

I dyno'd my R56 MCS and my wife's R56 MC on the same day on the same dyno. Mine is manual and hers is auto (if anyone was looking for this comparison).

 

Please share!!!

 

Man, I wish that I live in Oregon. I've got to make a plan for road trip up there someday. I'm planning on getting the ECU pnp and cat back
