Yeah, that guy was a "little" out there. I think he was banned from M5board a couple of times. haha

I think I remember he recently added the Dinan middle exhaust too.
Here is the funny part, kenny called him out after the event to seek revenge for the defeat of his twin brother Sohrab, and beat the Dinan S-2 by 1 car. Sohrab's car had some parts testing being done on his exhaust to lessen the drone, but it robbed him of power. RPPI still rules FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

results were inconclusive. Me and Arman both thought that we won the race. So rematch next time. But his car definitely pull on me on 4th&5th gear while I pulled/jumped on him from 2rd/3rd which kind of surprise me regarding the 3.91diff and his sub 20lbs 19" lightweight wheel but I have to let go the pedal when we were about even in 5th gear due to car in front of my lane, but his lane was clear.

I think i jumped him in 2nd/3rd due to the RPI headers, but his Dinan TBs and intake definitely benefit at high speed even though it not show on dyno.

Hey Kenny,

Armen's been posting again under his original handle, amedali on M5board. I just saw his signature and thought you'd get a kick out of it. Check out the last statement. Show it to Sohrab. LOL!

White M5 Dinan S2 +PLUS "Fastest M5 in the O.C."
DINAN S2 + DINAN X-PIPE + RPI Scoops = 589 Hp
19? HRE Titanium Super light C90 "18lbs."
470 /rwhp Cars got nothing on me.....you better ask somebody!!


Man, where is he getting 589hp?? Dinan's website claims 542hp for their S2 so is he saying the middle exhaust and RPI scoops gave him another 47hp???

Armin's a character and definitely misunderstood. He's more of a Dinan whore than ECF ever was.

Sohrab's seen it already. What can he say? Unfortunately, due to some circumstances Sohrab's M5 isn't making 470 rwhp anymore. We're working on rectifying that. So, at this time Armin can lay claim to being the "Fastest M5 in OC." BTW, I found out there is a ASR M5 in LA.

First, even if he beat Sorhab, it seems like he was kinda tied with Kenny right?
Second, unless he's raced every single M5 in the O.C., how can he make such a stupid claim? Besides for that ASR M5, how does he know there's no stroker M5 around that area?
Third, I don't think anyone misunderstands the guy at all. He's freakin arrogant and it's clear as night and day.

Definitely there is a G-power M6 out there in OC/Irvine area.
