Nice kill!
Its making me ache for my car! Akram and I will be on the dyno with it either Tues or Wed. We did some data logging on the race gas file, last week. All I can say is WOW.
Can't wait to crush all challengers on the street!

H town has been kind of wet lately.... you know that hurricane stuff LOL This month kicks off some good stuff, for example the Texas Jam occurs this month in Dallas. It is a mini supra nat.... then who knows when all the others will start creeping back out to play.

Not too many mods you can do on an M5 that will really add HP. A few here, a few there. All single digit mods pretty much.
And they tend to have a pretty over-inflated impression of their place in the food chain.

That's my experience with M cars. Two weeks ago I drove a M6 with tune and exhaust...well...it's fast, but not as much as I was expecting. Sure It is a high speed beast, and the sound and high revs makes you feel like you're on a F1 car, but really my flashed TT gives me a stronger feel of force, and until 5th gear it seems to pull stronger.
Maybe I'm wrong ( RWD, K16 flash and exhaust should not be enough), but I will find out soon..

I think you are right. With a tune and other supporting mods, you should beat one... here is a vid of an x50 vs m5

here is a modded against modded, both lightly modded I think..

the first video the stock m5 was up against an X50 tuned. I didn't expect the result. I would think that if it was tuned it would have beaten the M5, but maybe the tune is an off the shelf one that hardly pumps up the hp.
the second one is also a little hard to believe. Hybrid turbos with a good tune against a tuned, intake, exhaust M5. The turbo should have won this one as well.
