M5 wasn't that bad being stock but it is far from being good looking and sounding.
It's amazing car it just wasn't as enjoyable as it is now

I absolutely agree with that!!!

Nice, please let me know how it sounds afterwards. I will most likely get them too

It sounds great, there is so much more turbo spool and it feels more responsive too

One thing the cold start is brutal. Lol

I disagree w/ the "far", but it's a fair opinion! Personally, I also have SG and did the IND front and rear reflectors, tinted @ 35% and ceramic coated. I notice a vast improvement w/ the exhaust note and crackles w/ now 5k on the clock, but can see if one can even want more. Enjoy bud

Miko,

Would you mind if I meet you again?
I want to get the upper down pipes too but, I just want to hear the whole setup in person.

It's big investment and, it will definitely make it easier to spend the money, knowing how it sounds in person.

Thank you!

After down pipes I finished DME tune.

This car is a monster now, so much more responsive and powerful. With both down pipes, intake and tune this car must be at 800HP

Will try to schedule Dyno within next few weeks and see what she got

Tried to do some pulls 0-60 and 1/4 mile and 60-130 and none of them turned out good.
Wheel spin is going crazy. Temperature and winter tires completely screwing things up here.
Today is snowing

Will have to wait for new wheels and tires and temperatures to go up.
Now is waiting time

soopa · 01-12-2019, 08:05 PM

Can't wait to see the Dyno results!

Catchmeifyoucanf90 · 01-12-2019, 10:47 PM
