woah..28.360,00 euros...if i did the math correctly, i dont really consider paying 35 grand for 100hp+ for a m5/m6....
i mean, it would totally make your m5 a beast (which already is) but is it worth tuning it up to 600+ from 506 for 30 grand?
if you had loads of money to spend on it would be a good option but i dont think its worth putting the time/money into a car that is already the benchmark of all sport sedans

my words.... that is a price of a brand new 525i right there
for way over 100grand there are some other mean machines
actually: if you have 35grand for tuning, you will not be driving "just" an M5 to begin with.........saying this even as much as I love and dream about M5

If I do anything at all, to the engine, I will probably go with Kelleners Sport.
My friend bought their tuning kit ( camshafts, race cats, ECU reprogramming ).
Results: 55 hp / 50 Nm gain at around 5000 rpm, and 35 hp / 20 Nm at 8000 rpm.
The engine also revs much quicker - his car hits the limiter 1 - 2 seconds quicker than mine,
at full throttle. It?s also even more responsive and sound awesome!
Then there is price issue and insurance / warranty issues..............

Oh yeah, forgot to mention; the limiter was also raised to 400 KM/H, not that its ever gonna hit that.
I was told that DMS has a client with an M6 in Bahrain hitting 340KM/H (readable only from HUD). This was recorded for private viewing and I am awaiting for the clip from them. The fastest I've done on a straight road is 273KM/H on a highway in Malaysia recently. I'm quite tempted to go for the DMS remap but only after the car's more than a year old and I'm sure that the software, etc has stablised.
