Philosophy:

CarBahn has successfully engineered and manufactured the industry’s largest and most thermally efficient Heat Exchanger. By employing innovative design techniques, CarBahn has achieved a remarkable 40% increase in cooling capacity compared to existing Heat Exchangers in the market. Drawing inspiration from Formula 1 Heat Exchanger technology, CarBahn has integrated high-performance features and optimized flow dynamics to ensure unparalleled heat transfer efficiency.In addition to its superior thermal performance, CarBahn’s race inspired design boasts a remarkable reduction in weight, thanks to the implementation of advanced lightweight materials and improved structural design. When paired with the 3.5bar MAP sensor and Stage 2 Software, this combination significantly boosts power while ensuring safety.

CarBahn’s EVO intelligent software possesses remarkable adaptability to a large range of fuel octanes. Through our software, we employ retuning techniques while ensuring that all critical safety features, which are often neglected, remain intact and add additional safety features where necessary. To gain a deeper understanding of these safety limits, we invite you to watch the informative video available at this link. By recalibrating the safety limits, our software seamlessly adapts from 93 to 100 octane, eliminating the necessity for a customized tune when employing race gas. This unique functionality enables the software to deliver maximum power with each octane variant without compromise. Consequently, there is no need to purchase a custom tune exclusively for race gas usage. Our software is meticulously designed to provide the highest achievable performance output while upholding safety as a paramount concern. Here, the term “intelligent software” denotes the accurate and optimized tuning of the software, avoiding excessive tuning. Our objective is to craft a torque curve that maintains a natural and harmonious delivery, as showcased in this link. We avoid generating excessive torque at low RPMs, which could result in tire slippage, engine stress, and drivetrain failures. By managing torque with a smooth delivery, our software enhances drivability, thereby fostering increased speed and reliability. In contrast to our competitors, who often attempt to maximize performance by pushing boost levels beyond safe limits, our approach prioritizes reliability. We refrain from compromising knock sensitivity and thermal protections, which are vital for safeguarding the engine from potential damage caused by extreme power extraction. 

Durability:

Unlike most tunes available in the market, CarBahn’s software maintains the integrity of safety parameters, preserving them to prevent any compromise in engine performance and longevity. Parameters such as knock control sensitivity, super knocking control sensitivity, and catalyst thermal protection are carefully tuned within your OEM software to mitigate the risk of engine and catalyst failure. In our pursuit of optimizing power delivery, we have minimized power losses to a mere 12 HP when reducing these supposed power-reducing software protections. On the contrary, we have witnessed numerous instances of damaged engines resulting from the reduction of these safety parameters. Thus, it becomes apparent that gaining a marginal 12 HP advantage hardly justifies the potential risk of significant engine damage. 

Do-it-yourself Approach:

It is essential to acknowledge the emergence of self-tuning tools in the automotive market. While these tools offer the convenience of tuning your vehicle independently, it is crucial to exercise caution. Many of these tools come equipped with pre-set programs that conveniently bypass safety limits, thus posing a substantial risk of engine damage. The art of tuning a high-output engine requires profound knowledge and experience to extract maximum power without compromising the engine’s structural integrity. 

Emissions Legality: 

Let us address the topic of removing the catalyst, commonly achieved through the utilization of downpipes. Our rigorous testing regimen involved conducting consecutive dyno runs with and without the catalyst, and the observed power gain was significantly smaller than commonly touted, typically around 11 HP. Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge our shared responsibility towards environmental preservation, as clean air is vital to our well-being. Furthermore, obtaining the necessary emissions certifications without a catalyst is a daunting task and, from a legal standpoint, it is considered an infringement. 

About Steve Dinan: 

With an illustrious career spanning over four decades, Steve Dinan stands as an authority in streetcar turbo tuning. Under his leadership, our team has triumphed in three prototype racing championships and secured two overall victories at the esteemed 24 Hours of Daytona in collaboration with Chip Ganassi Racing. Steve Dinan’s unparalleled expertise solidifies our claim as the leading force in tuning high-performance engines.

CarBahn high flow replacement air filter for your OEM airbox.  With less restriction and similar cleaning characteristics, this filter will increase the breathability of your high-performance engine. CarBahn measured a power gain of 15 hp.

CarBahn Performance Controller (CPC):

The CPC is a plug and play ECU that increases boost pressure in turbocharged cars to dramatically increase HP and Torque. The unit has selectable maps through a Bluetooth app on your smart phone.

You can download these apps for your smartphone through the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.

These maps are designed to accommodate different octane fuels for additional increased performance. You can choose between 91, 93 and 100 Octane.

As with all CarBahn products an optional powertrain warranty can be purchased.

If you want to trade your CarBahn Performance Controller in for software in the future, there is a $500 upgrade fee and if you purchased the warranty, it is transferable to the software at no additional charge!

Doing it yourself:

A note on self-tuning tools. There are now programs available that you can buy to tune your car yourself. Many of these tools come with canned programs. Be careful as tuning a high output engine requires tremendous knowledge and experience to extract maximum power without damage.

Emissions legality:

A note on down pipes (removing the catalyst). We have run back-to-back dyno runs with the cat on and off and the power gain is much smaller than most people claim usually around 11hp. We all need to breathe the air. It is difficult to get your car its required emissions test without catalyst and it is illegal.

High boost with stock engine:

We have seen many damaged engines as result of making too much power with a stock engine. While modern engines are very reliable, it is easy to add large turbochargers and water methanol injection and break the engine. On the F9X, maximum safe power on a stock engine is 800 lb-ft flywheel torque. CarBahn makes high performance engines designed to handle more power. More information is available on this web site.

Philosophy: 

CarBahn’s EVO intelligent software possesses remarkable adaptability to a large range of fuel octanes. Through our software, we employ retuning techniques while ensuring that all critical safety features, which are often neglected, remain intact and add additional safety features where necessary. To gain a deeper understanding of these safety limits, we invite you to watch the informative video available at this link. By recalibrating the safety limits, our software seamlessly adapts from 93 to 100 octane, eliminating the necessity for a customized tune when employing race gas. This unique functionality enables the software to deliver maximum power with each octane variant without compromise. Consequently, there is no need to purchase a custom tune exclusively for race gas usage. Our software is meticulously designed to provide the highest achievable performance output while upholding safety as a paramount concern. Here, the term “intelligent software” denotes the accurate and optimized tuning of the software, avoiding excessive tuning. Our objective is to craft a torque curve that maintains a natural and harmonious delivery, as showcased in this link. We avoid generating excessive torque at low RPMs, which could result in tire slippage, engine stress, and drivetrain failures. By managing torque with a smooth delivery, our software enhances drivability, thereby fostering increased speed and reliability. In contrast to our competitors, who often attempt to maximize performance by pushing boost levels beyond safe limits, our approach prioritizes reliability. We refrain from compromising knock sensitivity and thermal protections, which are vital for safeguarding the engine from potential damage caused by extreme power extraction. 

CarBahn’s Heat Exchanger, combined with larger dual Intercoolers, create an exceptionally efficient heat exchanging package. This setup enables maximum boost and allows for the extraction of maximum power from your engine. By integrating additional Heat Exchanger and replacing the OEM Intercoolers with larger units, effectively extracts more heat from the turbo discharge air. These components are specifically designed to handle the increased heat generated by higher boost levels. The CarBahn system reduces intake air temperature, resulting in increased air density, which is crucial for achieving maximum power output and ensuring engine reliability in high boost applications.  CarBahn has successfully engineered and manufactured the industry’s largest and most thermally efficient Heat Exchanger. By employing innovative design techniques, CarBahn has achieved a remarkable 40% increase in cooling capacity compared to existing Heat Exchangers in the market. Drawing inspiration from Formula 1 Heat Exchanger technology, CarBahn has integrated high-performance features and optimized flow dynamics to ensure unparalleled heat transfer efficiency. In addition to its superior thermal performance, CarBahn’s race inspired design boasts a remarkable reduction in weight, thanks to the implementation of advanced lightweight materials and improved structural design. When paired with the 3.5bar MAP sensor and Stage 3 Software, this combination significantly boosts power while ensuring safety. 

Durability: 

Unlike most tunes available in the market, CarBahn’s software maintains the integrity of safety parameters, preserving them to prevent any compromise in engine performance and longevity. Parameters such as knock control sensitivity, super knocking control sensitivity, and catalyst thermal protection are carefully tuned within your OEM software to mitigate the risk of engine and catalyst failure. In our pursuit of optimizing power delivery, we have minimized power losses to a mere 12 HP when reducing these supposed power-reducing software protections. On the contrary, we have witnessed numerous instances of damaged engines resulting from the reduction of these safety parameters. Thus, it becomes apparent that gaining a marginal 12 HP advantage hardly justifies the potential risk of significant engine damage. 

Do-it-yourself Approach: 

It is essential to acknowledge the emergence of self-tuning tools in the automotive market. While these tools offer the convenience of tuning your vehicle independently, it is crucial to exercise caution. Many of these tools come equipped with pre-set programs that conveniently bypass safety limits, thus posing a substantial risk of engine damage. The art of tuning a high-output engine requires profound knowledge and experience to extract maximum power without compromising the engine’s structural integrity. 

Emissions Legality: 

Let us address the topic of removing the catalyst, commonly achieved through the utilization of downpipes. Our rigorous testing regimen involved conducting consecutive dyno runs with and without the catalyst, and the observed power gain was significantly smaller than commonly touted, typically around 11 HP. Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge our shared responsibility towards environmental preservation, as clean air is vital to our well-being. Furthermore, obtaining the necessary emissions certifications without a catalyst is a daunting task and, from a legal standpoint, it is considered an infringement.

CarBahn has produced the largest most thermally efficient heat exchanger on the market. Increasing cooling capacity by 40%. This heat exchanger utilizes F1 heat exchanger technology. This heat exchanger technology is dramatically more efficient than the lower cost heat exchangers on the market. The race car heat exchanger is significantly lighter weight.

Increasing boost generates more heat. The addition of the heat exchanger allows you to run more boost safely by reducing charge air temperature. This reduction in charge air temperature also makes more power.This is particularly noticeable in summer months when ambient temperature is high.

When used in conjunction with CarBahn software the addition of this heat exchanger providers enough safety that we can offer a factory matching warranty on your engine and drivetrain.

CarBahn Autoworks is proud to announce the Monoball for the F9X BMW M5/M8 models.

The CarBahn Autoworks Monoball Kit replaces the rubber bushings in the stock thrust arms with sealed precision ball joints inside machined aluminum housings. As a result of eliminating the deflection that is inherent in rubber bushings, braking stability is improved, and the tendency for the car to follow ruts in the road (especially with wider wheels and tires) is reduced.

The bearings inside the Monoball Assembly are nylon-lined for quiet operation, and are sealed against water and debris intrusion for longevity.

Estimated Installation Time: 3.0 hours (excludes alignment)

Derived from the GTD1 racing wheel, the Forgeline GT1 5-Lug one piece monoblock wheel brings its racing DNA to the street. The GT1 5-Lug combines the latest in advanced wheel technology, including one piece forged monoblock construction, motorsport engineered design, I-beamed spokes, and I-beamed spoke spans to deliver head-turning good looks with track-ready capability.

The GT1 5-Lug is a fully-forged one-piece monoblock wheel that is manufactured using technology similar to the very successful GA1R wheel. The GT1 5-Lug’s concave 10-spoke design includes extra long spokes that extend beyond the hidden lug holes while allowing plenty of room for caliper clearance and extreme brake fitment. The one-piece monoblock forging and computer-simulated FEA design process yield a wheel that is very lightweight, extremely stiff, and has excellent fatigue strength.

The Forgeline GT1 5-Lug one piece monoblock wheel is machined from a single forging of 6061-T6 aluminum. It is currently available in 18, 19, 20, and 21-inch diameters. (Please Note: Depending on size, the GT1 5-Lug may be available in deep, medium, or shallow concave profiles.)

And just like any Forgeline wheel, it is available with fully customizable finish options. Price for the Forgeline GT1 5-Lug one piece monoblock wheel set starts at $8400.00 depending on size and finish.
