Todd, call Eloy and schedule an appointment together. I'm supposed to get my ecu reprogrammed next week also.
It might be easier if we both get it done on the same day.

The Esprit is sort of a bucket for an exotic car. Most true 2 seat exotics, of course, are much faster than even a modded M5. Then again, how many of those exotics can carry 4-5 passengers and lots of luggage. To me, M5 is the perfect all around car.

Our RPI stage 2 package has even trumped other "true 2 seat exotics", like the gallardo and F430. Forum member, keang24 gladly did the honors.

What is the horsepower and torque gain from stock on a M5?
