My E60 M5 :: Interlagos Blue

Stock engine except for removed charcoal filters and BMC drop-in air filters.

Dynojet Numbers: 439RWHP/329RWTQ (CF: STD) or 427RWHP/320RWTQ (CF: SAE)

Lowered with Eibach Pro-Kit springs (1.2" Front & 0.60" Rear) with Rogue Engineering spacers (10mm Front & Rear) for a more aggressive stance.

I was checking out your pics, didn't realize you were local (PNW) until I saw the CarbConn dyno graph.

Thanks flyinbrian. That was to goal. I wanted it to retain the factory M5-look with just a punch of aggressiveness . . . for now.

Thanks. I wasn't looking for the "slammed" look. Wanted to reduce the wheel well gap and the Eibachs gave me exactly what I was looking for.

One of the best looking colors for the E60 M5. Nice shots.

Anymore plans for it?

Thanks. No real plans other than my 9500ci install this week.

Happy with the performance and looks for the time being.
