With so many members modifying their stock set-ups, I was keen to know what power-to-weight ratio you are running with!
If needed, you can calculate here:

By the way, a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport has a power-to-weight ratio of ~446BHP per tonne!

360bhp on the n62, divided by car weight (?? - I'm getting weights varying from 1770 to 2300 on the web for the e60 550i 2008) + driver weight (90kg)... anywhere from 156-203 per tonne...Therein lies my problem..
The range puts me anywhere between a Clio V6 and an Elise R...lol
