Thanks, I was filming with my nikon D90 with a custom built headrest camera mount.
I believe the mustang cobra was putting down more than 440hp but he had a new tune and race fuel

D - How often do you hit "Limp Mode" in your car with the JB3 tune? Is it quite often when you push the car like this? Does Dinan's tune ever go into Limp Mode?

David,

RPi Stage I = RPi GT Race exhaust (1, 2, 3), RPi pulley, RPi Ram Air Kit, and block off plates. Dynoed 414 rwhp on Dyno Dynamics = 537 hp crank. No Powerchip tune yet.
RPi Stage II = RPi headers, RPi oil cooler, RPi GT Race exhaust (1, 2, 3), RPi pulley, RPi Ram Air Kit and block off plates. Dynoed 432 rwhp on Dyno Dynamics = 575 hp crank. No Powerchip tune yet.

Joe - When is that PC tune going to be ready for our M5's? Summer is around the corner. I'm about to throw my RAD's back on. I need the remap or I'm going back to Dinan.
