997TT versus Dinan Stroker E60M5
997TT versus Dinan Stroker E60M5
So a buddy of mine just recently did the Dinan stroker motor conversion on his '08 M5. A few weeks ago we decided to do a few test runs. It resulted in him pulling on me regardless of what RPM range I was in(from a second gear roll and third gear roll). On every single run he got the jump from the start even when I was in the boost. I would like to think it was driver error and that my car should fair better for a stock 997TT. I know with a quick ECU tune and exhaust the results would be different. Has anyone posted Vbox times for a stock 997 turbo? I need to run mine this weekend. His results are below:
... by the way I was in the Sport chrono mode, air off, but I had PSM on (not sure if this makes a difference)
Best Times for the Dinan stroker M5
---------------
0-60: 3.81s
0-100: 8.28s
55-110: 6.58s
60-130: 9.59s (with 3 shifts)
0-130: 13.43s
100km/h - 200km/h: 8.24s (with 3 shifts) <---put in for CH-Dario's benefit

stock 6sp 997tt's do 11-12s 60-130's from what I have seen. The gearing makes 2 shifts necessary. A GIAC flash and exhaust will drop that down to the high 7s to low 8s range. The 700 kits drop it into the mid to high 6s range. The M5 will be in your rearview mirrors with exhaust and a flash, and in a different zip code with the 700 kits!

As a former Dinan 5er owner I can tell you they are fast for a few weeks then the honeymoon is over. His rods will do 0-60 faster then his car, just give it some time

I have not seen worse work from the aftermarket world nor worse support then from Steve.

Thanks for the support guys. His car is very impressive. You can see videos (posted on the M5 board; Darren_Dallas) that he posted of a few highspeed runs we did 3 weeks ago with a HPF stage 2.5 turbo E46 M3 (putting 630HP to the wheels) and our friend's highly modified Ford GT-40. The Ford Gt by far spanks everyone.
I am going to ask for a rematch once I get the GIAC software uploaded.
