So, we had our meet today down in South Florida. Close to 180 BMW's showed up from what I heard. As the topic states, I was able to get a dyno done. Actually, I got three runs. I always felt the 550 was fast and was a beast above 60 mph, but it was time for a dyno. I wasn't sure what to expect but I guess I'm cool with the results. Just got to say, there were a lot of new M3's and modded 335i there and they had great results. I believe most of the base M3's had results of 324 'ish.

Conditions: Dyno was done outside and it was low 90's. I think they should have had better air blowing into the front of the car:

Trust me man...your making more HP than that lol...My car was so damn heatsoaked...it was crazy...

They really do need an actual fan...and the direct heat wasn't helping any either...

What's interesting is that your numbers are going up on the 2nd and 3rd run...I lost 5WHP on the second run

Well the cars were sitting out in the heat running for awhile before the runs. I didn't know what to expect, but thought I would have done better. The fan was blowing more into the lower grill on my run. I'm sure on the Highway it would do better.

Yea me too man...I think my run was pretty horrible to be honest. That heat kills every last ounce or performance.
