Love the technical goodies! Keep up the good work on the M5 modding ![]() Can't wait to hear the full race system once it goes in! Are you guys planning on doing downpipes as well? |

I can't believe I was looking at this car couple of weeks ago in the showroom.
Ilia, I can't wait to see what this car will be capable of. |

Same with the N63 back in 2009..
"According to the lucky crew over at Inside Line, BMW's brand-new 750i managed to put down an impressive 391 horsepower at around 5,500 RPM and 434 lb-ft of torque at about 3,500 RPM." That equates to more like 460hp and 500 ft/lbs at the crank. |

Great to see such results, and look frwd to the full IND project work ahead!
Quick question: what options did this M5 have? I am really 'concerned' of the ever increasing weight on the M5, and been entertaining just going with the HUD, 20" wheels (which actually weigh less than the 19s!), and full leather. Anyone weigh a car without the Driver Assistance and Exec package? Wonder how much a bunch of needless (to me) electronics actually add to the weight. If a 'stripper' can be had for 4200 or less, than I can stomach that (maybe even in the 4100s with ceramic breaks). Hoping this 4317 car above has all the bells and whistles. ![]()

So in this case the M5 is generating 606 HP at the crank

...OR BMW's engines got more efficient, so their drivetrain power loss is less than 15%... much less.
but they're not THAT good, right?
