In Reply to: How Much HP can a 320i rear end take? posted by Spencer on July 21, 2001 at 15:29:17:

an estimated 240hp and sticky tires.
Pat 'Turboman' Allen (2002) reports simular problems, unsure of pats hp.
Although I would say it depends on the torque of the motor. I would wager that a 220hp mustang 5.0l would destroy the rear end much faster.



How Much HP can a 320i rear end take out of a 1980?
