Also, Rob and I did a run against each other, with one M5 that had the filters still installed and the other M5 without the filters installed. The one without the filters pulled on the one with the filters.

Anyways, one thing is certain. You definitely have a GTR killer on your hands. Another member made a video of his stock M6 putting car lengths on a stock 2012 GTR in a race. It was pretty epic. Hoping to get the M5 to that level sooner rather than later. Can't wait to see your M6!


I too think the filters have some juice in them... I not sure how much but there is something there no doubt.. FlyM5's dynos also had the plates installed too and thats where he had huge gains or was there a dyno with just the filters out??. I like to think the exhaust didnt hurt me and that was my goal. Ill have the HRE's on in about 3 weeks but the springs are not even available yet so the car sits a little high.
