The one for E60 545i is still underdevelopment, but for the 645 ?same engine?
is ready ! 450hp looks just perfect, Don?t know about how the auto transmissions will hold, because I know the B5 they modify the trans.
Anyway, will wait till this thing got ready for our E60.

Damn that's sick!
More than 100HP more from this upgrade.
It's got the hefty price tag to go along with it though.
$8,000 :'(
I notice on the e60 545 page, they incorrectly list the base HP at 230 (this is the I-6 engine in the 530i, right?).

I'd rather rob a bank. With the HP you gain, you can easily get away from the cops!
