So I would be 7.5 car lengths back of Rab Dog then.
lol. Note that the runs I made with Rab Dog, were before the ECU remap. Once you get the software flash, the car will be much stronger. As the map is aggresive. Glad to hear you are happy with the exhaust.

I was with some M5Board members last weekend and all of them said my system sounded so much nicer than Eisenmann, Meistershaft, ASR, Dinan and Supersprint. I couldn't be happier!

Did you get a chance to run them and compare performance? I am sure that you would outrun all of them.

Max crank hp MPower82 is making is 539 hp. Take the 415 rear wheel horse power number and divide by .77 to get the crank hp number. Also, the dyno used is a Dyno Dynamic. It's not the same as Dyno Jet.
Eloy, Joe and I were discussing this over lunch today after the toys for tots event. And considering the 10% correction factor for a Dynojet, this set up will yield around 456 RWH on a dynojet, and this is before the software flash.

This thread is worthless without vids and sound
more for you.


This is what the car sounds and looks like in action. This is a video of the ST section 1, GT section 2, and GT section 3. (exact setup that C'sBimmer has)


-video of a silver M5 at RPI with the same setup before he stepped up to stage 2!

Removal of secondary cats = more power. So GT Section 1 (which Eddie has) will give him an additional 8rwhp over my set-up, which is ST Section 1 (High Flow Cats).
So what is the benefit of getting high flow cats over the straight pipe? It's not as loud?

Not as loud, environmentally friendly, and less exhaust smell.
