466bhp Chipped E92 M3 From BMW-M-Mexico from another board :
"OK guys, after some time, I finally got a copy of the dyno for my chipped E92 M3, 466 bhp DIN and 338 lbs/ft of torque. Here is the dyno and pics (by the way, it does pull much harder and the difference is real):
The software comes from these guys: http://www.delriopower.com and costs about US$2,000.00 I have visited there facilities and Witnessed how they build engines etc…. last week they completed 5 Indy type engines. They have most of the stuff build in Europe or the USA to their specs but the important thing is that they do know engines, prepare lots of race engines and have a staff the does lots of research on this stuff. They are not at all good and customer service but they do know what they do.
In terms of engine mods, the only changes are Gruppe-M intake, ECU reflash and Exhaust. Aero mods include CF ACS front diffuser, CF 3d rear splitter, CF Vorsteiner CLS boot lid that also reduces weight. Suspension mods are HRE 897R light weight wheels with PS2’s, lowering springs and ACS rear strut bar. On the way is the BBK that I hope to god is here sometime this week or next week.
In general, I feel the car is much faster than it used to be right from the start, I do really enjoy driving it!!"

One Cavet:
"...the MPG is a LOT WORSE than it was. Don´t really know by how much but since I am always steping on it (as I did before) the gass tank certainly lasts less. This is very consistent with what they said, I said I wanted power and did not care for fuel efficiency. They also increased the rev limiter a bit and well as delimited top speed. The reason the increased the rev limiter (to 8,500 RPM) is not because it will make more power, but because it helps make shifts at the limit a bit easier w/o harming the engine due to the quality of the local fuel."
