Stock vs Helene - Helene gained 13whp and about 5wtq across the curve, though no more peak torque than stock.
dose any 1 have this?
do they still make them?

Unfortunately, no matter what they are calling themselves now - they don't make a filter for the E60, only seem to be made for 3ers and Z4's

+1 Not sure I noticed that much of a gain but my care was new when I installed it so don't have much of a baseline. Seemed to add a little more growl under load if your looking for that.
