Followed these directions from M3forum:

1) Start Car (Hood did NOT need to be closed on 6MT, will need to be closed on SMG or sensors bypassed)
2) Shut off DSC (nothing special, we did just a 2 second push)
3) Drive car thru first few gears up to ~4k RPMs (we went all the way to 4th)
4) Put car in neutral, shut car off, ONLY TURN KEY ONE POSITION BACK TO ACC NOT ALL THE WAY OFF
5) Immediately restart car while rear wheels still spinning
6) Release clutch, shift to preferred gear for
dyno pull (we used both 4th and 5th)
7) Let motor spin down to preferred run start RPM
8) Perform pull
