PP Busted  . That would explain why it took so long to get vbox times documented and even when they post vbox, it is suspect. Now i know why they post dyno crap all the time. I was hoping for 2.5s to be true but i guess if it sounds too good, it is probably BS |
0-62mph in 2.5 seconds is fast.
I have experience of Mitsubishi Evo's and Nissan Skyline GTR's (the older ones, not R35). These even in a very high state of tune circa 700-800
Wheel horsepower struggle to get below 2.9 seconds on normal asphalt.
They weigh a good 300kg's less than an M5, have 4WD, sticky tyres (Nitto 888's) and sequential dog engagement boxes. If they can't get down to 2.5 on anything other than a 'glued' dragstrip, there is no way on earth a big fat, RWD M5 is going to get there, even with a million horespower.
My conclusion is the claim intimated in post one is absolute shite.
