Yes, 450 lb/ft or 600 nm is the max for the tranny... I remember VF said they got issues on the tranny when the SC on a 645i went over 500hp. So tune the tranny to 445 lb/ft or 550 nm as maximum that would be fine.
I don't know... why not tuning a SC to at least 500hp and 445 lb/ft as maximum.

How much power and torque do the b6/b7s make? Jaguar xkr? I believe they all use the ZF tranny...
Alpina B5S (530 HP) has 750 Nm, so I think 700 Nm for 500 HP.

Interesting... does the alpina have same tranny on 545/550 or ZF? So how the hell the alpina manages it.
The Alpina B5s has an improved automatic gearbox by ZF.
6 MT/SMG keep 600 Nm, steptronic I don't know..?

On M5Board, Roman stated that they're focusing on the SC for the M3 right now. I asked what would be next, the SC for the M5 or the 545/550 cause originally, the SC for the M5 was supposed to be coming out in Dec or so. I did'nt get a reply there so I guess I'm asking the question here as well. What's the timeline?
