How to dyno 335i with DCT properly

Tgen · 08-09-2011, 05:04 AM

We are wondering how or what setup we should use to get real results from dyno with DCT. Any ideas?

why would it be different from dynoing any other automatic? put it in the gear with the closest 1:1 ratio and floor it

im not sure if there is a kick down switch on the DCT. if there is, floor it, but don't press the switch and make it downshift

There is but I see his point now, if you don't hit the switch then the overboost function wont activate

assuming this is a 335is

Why wouldn't over boost activate? At full throttle, it will activate. Hitting the switch only causes a downshift. You are already at full throttle when you hit the resistance point.

It is not only the "is" that has the DCT.
Mine is a regular 335i with DCT.
