Another great way to feel more from you car from time to time is to take out your Sprint Booster for a week and then put it back in. You'll swear you bought yourself a new car and the smile will be right back, just like day 1.

We're pretty close guys. The 545 and 550 scoops are able to be mounted on the top tab (step). The next step is to dyno test again and see if these mounting/installation changes will result in hp.

So I assume there are no new scoops for the M5? The ones in the M's are fine as is?

So has anyone been able to test if the 530i setup gains hp?

Joe was the first to get the scoop on his 530 and I believe the dyno showed a 3whp gain.

10-14whp for now. Once I get Rabdog's car finished we will work on the V4 (possibly). EM_5 was here yesterday and we tried something with the block off plates. We dynod his car at 412whp the same day we tested avi8ters car. This was about a month ago. We then dynod his car at 412whp again yesterday, put the block off plates on and we hit 422whp peak and 417whp average.

What are block off plates?
