Hi guys, I am new here, been driving my E60 since 2004, only recently looking into mod'g my car, just recently got the Sprint Booster installed after reading the Option Fans, loves it! Ever since then I have been doing some research on the possibilities, then I accidentally found this sub-forum.

After spending some time reading on this sub-forum, can somebody pls tell me where/who is AK47?

Love that led lights for the rear license plate on ricky1329's, and billhk's Quad pipes+carbon diffuser is truely a beaut! Must have costed aa fortune.

You're right, US version is abit detuned 225bhp compared to the Euro 231bhp (Not huge difference tho)
Post 05 has 258bhp and 08 LCI 530i has 272bhp

Mine is late 03 car so only got 231bhp with 300nm torque, so my car will only get approx 170bhp from stock
With the RPI scoop and sebring exhausts, i might able to get around 176-180bhp

Not impressive innt?
if you get 10hp extra for that kind of money that is very good.

no stock of arqray quads in HK now, you might have to get eisenmann or hammann, or airfreight it(expensive) the
new stock of arqray won't arrive till 1st week Jan and will be 30% more due to the Yen (my one had been in stock over a year)even though the price of steel is going down
