Thumbs up Owner F80 M3 Dyno and Weight: Let the modding begin!

Here's what we've all been waiting for! This being the first F80 at our facility, forum member tightie decided to inspect this Yas Marina Blue M3 on a lift, weigh it on the scales and strap it to our dyno.

We love everything about this car, but we did happen to notice that the wheels were quite sunken in. To correct this problem we immediately installed 20mm Macht Schnell spacers in both the front and the rear, pushing the wheels out to their proper position without causing any rubbing.

On the scales, this F80 weighed in at 3590lbs (pounds) with a nearly 50/50 weight distribution. The dyno numbers are what really impressed us, though. BMW claims this motor makes 425hp and 406lb-ft tq at the crank; on our Dynojet this M3 recorded 424hp and 425lb-ft tq at the wheels! Oh yeah, it actually sounds pretty good too — check out the dyno video below to hear it for yourself. We took a ton of photos to give you an up-close and personal look at this beautiful F80, so take a few minutes to soak it all in and enjoy.

Modifications
- iND Yas Marina Blue pre-painted Front Reflectors
- Macht Schnell Compeition Wheel Spacers (20mm Front & Rear)

Tune is next, can't wait for round 2.

Enjoy!
