This test also included a 2011+ e92 m3 that made 309 whp run at the same time as the f8x.

Unfortunately, this is an awd dyno and it was run in awd mode. That's why both m3's made about 10-15% less power than they have on any other dyno

If you watch the vid you can see all 4 wheels spinning.

Fail for sure



Look at the front rollers spinning at 525 and 605.

Dumb, it's supposed to be run only on the rear wheels and in 2wd mode.
