I second Marks opinion on the Stage III suspension upgrade. It transforms the car from understeer to neutral. I thought the car just needed more front camber & more rear bar but the whole stage III package was such a good deal I went for it. I also put in the software simply to eliminate the 155mph speed limiter, & the exhaust for a crisper exhaust note.
I did not do the cold air intake because in my opinion the car already has a cold air intake. The Dinan intake sucks air from the same place the stock M5 does!!

For what its worth I Dynoed my car before and after & picked up 6 HP. probably due to the Exhaust. I wasn't really expecting any gains, just wanted to make sure I wasn't actually loosing anything.


ALTHOUGH THE NUMERICAL DIFFERENCE IS MINISCULE, THE FEEL IS UNBELIEVABLE. AMAZING LOW END AND GROWL. I HAVE THE EXHAUST, COLD AIR AND ECU. MUCH MORE THROTTLE RESPONSE.
