Project coming together

FrozenSolid · 06-03-2022, 08:07 PM

So getting down to the final touches on my Frozen Bronze 16 M5 comp. Cant say enough about this car and how it's turning out. Quick run down of whats all done

Autotecknic Front and Side Grilles, mirror caps, rear diffuser and antenna cover

RK style front lip

Nelson Racing Wheel carbon roundels

Some no name OEM+ carbon spoiler and M Performance exhaust tips

Under the hood, big shout out to ApexBuilt who took my vision and helped make it happen.

All the ApexBuilt goodies, titanium Charge pipes, charge coolers, Downpipes and Titanium front Mount intake are all them. Fitment was spot on for everything which was killer!

I also have MHD stage2 and xHP stage3 to finish it off.

Last couple things are KW HAS and wheels and I should be done, let me know what you think

Looks really good

Amazing build and stunning M5, I follow your story on Insta

makes me want to upgrade my engine bay as well, other than Eventuri intakes 👍🏻

Engine bay looking good FrozenSolid, reminds me a bit of McLaren F1 road car bay with the gold and copper heat protector film and I guess the PU cover stays off.

How does the transmission feel after xHP, esp just in cruising conditions?

cruising is normal, didn't notice a difference outside of a crisper shift. However in sport 1/2 you for sure notice the difference. crisp very fast shifts, sport downshifts a little more aggressive and hold rpm a little longer as well in auto. Sport plus is very fast shifts and no kickdown on full throttle

word is the MHD tune is half baked for the m5.

Yep, came out very recently. It's been in beta testing, don't know if it's out of that or not.

Haven't had a single issue with the updated map for stage 2. They came out with an update after the AFR issue was spotted maybe like 3 weeks ago or so.
