Vegastrashed and myself were at the Mexico run also.
These cars are like 2 silver bullets. The acceleration is unbelievable. We were discussing running one of these monsters against a stock M5, just for measure. I predict that from a 2nd gear roll up to 160, it would be about 15 cars! Any volunteers?

I'm sure Greg (g24) will come out:D
But since everyone knows that with just the RPI scoops that it can pull on a stock M5 why do the comparison:confused: why not bring a VF S/C M3, HPF M3 or a Dinan E60 M5 stroker or a Evosport E60 M5 ...also there will be a dyno day at the meet on Sunday it'll be cool to see all the BMW models dyno at the same day..

Eddie I totally aggree and will put money on 15-cars with a stock E60 M5. When me and you were messing around I put easiely 6-8 cars on you out of 3rd gear and your car is running strong after the RPI exhaust, pulley and block off plates. Next for your is software will really help your drivability on increase on top end..
Im gonna try to make it out to the BBQ at VF and put my car on a Dyno Jet to see if the beast can break that 500hp mark!! :D

from there we can compare with youtube video of stroker vs stock m5. In addition, all of us can really see what RPI mods really put down, and how they have improved an already awesome machine.
The Dinan guys are all talk, we called a couple out and none showed. I ran Rab Dog and keang24 like 2 times on the freeway just for fun, and they got me by 6 lengths both times.
During these runs Rab Dog got some times on the vbox, 60-130 in 9.3 seconds. If he really focuses I believe they can come down to 9.1, which is right on point of the Dinan Stroker.

Wait for Mfest 3;) ... i invited a guy with a M6 stroker and hopefully we'll see the Gpower S3 M6 that SouthBAy Autohaus is looking into doing very soon (aside from that we'll see VF e46 s/c S3, HPF Turbo'd S4 and The E9X stroler from RD sport and S/C from VF engineering...and hopefully we'll get the drag strip and the track aswell with all the heat were bringing:D...

Rab...nice meeting you and the crew; Joe and Eloy from RPI, Joe from Trinity along with Gabriel and Jeremy! I had a great time at RPI Friday afternoon taking a listen, drive and in-depth comparison of your M5 beasts and their RPI modded power upgrades (and LACK thereof in my case!). We looked at dyno sheets, made short burst runs around the shop streets in the two RPI M5s and in the end, the RPI products sold themselves!!
By Christmas week I will have followed in yours and Kenny's footsteps and will have A FULL RPI power modded M5.....Make room for another car to run with, Mexico/241/133.....it'll be great....

Well guys sorry to let people down my car died at 451hp @ 6000RPM.... I threw a idle actuator error that is a known recall by BMW.....
Car is going in for software update this week and Nick at VF told me I can come back anytime to re-Dyno again to see if I can break the 500hp mark..
Just to let people know my car on the RPI Dyno 6000Rpm put out 390hp and at 8000rpm put out 470hp...
There is no doubt that I can break the 500hp mark and I will have some proven results when the DME problems are corrected.

It was not the best of luck day for Dynoing for our cars, but it turned out to be a fantastic meet..
We left early because pretty I dissapointed with my computer problem and had other engangments had to attend in the afternoon.
For sure set up another Dyno day when our cars are back to 100%..
