A special thanks to Phoenix for all the great M5 pics offered.

All the wheels shown are beautiful but the Hartge and Radenergie weigh a ton.
The Neez QD7 is a great wheel but to pay their prices I'd rather get Dymag CF wheels. The member who said the Neez or bust, well you pay their prices. For $2K per wheel I want something special like CF wheel barrels.

So I come to the best practical decision. The HRE monoblok is a great sound forged aluminum product and less than Neez.

You are not forfieting anything when you go with HRE. The quality is there from HRE in the components of their wheels.

Radenergie is the best looking wheels for BMW IMHO. I wish they made wheels for other cars.

 

I have always been a huge fan of AC Schnitzer Type V on the M5.

 

GT3Ranger, what have you done to your M5? 581rwhp is pretty impressive.

 

for exhaust, you have to hear this!

Raymond, where can this exhaust be found? Cannot read japanese, but is it available in North AMERICA? BTW, the M5 is home now and the turbo kit is also here, give me a shout if you have time to check it out.

 

There is no doubt this exhaust (The One and Only) is an awesome piece of work but it maybe be related or is the same as the Ericcson exhaust sold by Amuse. I believe it is titanium and $12,000 !!
They claim 42 bhp from the exhaust. That is an extremely tall claim.

I may add that the sound allbeit fantastic there is a component of reverberation bouncing off the track walls and the enclosed race track setting.
Also that's going pretty fast in pit lane and would have been hit with a pit lane violation .

Checkout this exhaust. This M6 is 100% stock except for the ASR exhaust system.[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orWBy5AL-AQ[/media]

Anyway enjoy and good luck with your mods. It's alot of fun.

BTW I can PM you with details of my M5 mods.

Cheers, GT3Ranger...Juan

This should work

 

GT3Ranger, thanks for the link. Please feel free to PM me the mods you have done, as I am still very new to the M5 family.

 

Hey kcphuah, if you are looking for an exhaust do not make a decision without fully evaluating the full exhaust (Sections 1, 2 & 3) system from ASR Engineering. I have their exhaust (first generation -- video is the latest) and I know very well the company and owner. He is the reason my M5 dyno'ed 581 rwhp and 461 lb/ft rw torque.
The exhaust has a great price. The M6 in the video is 100% stock except the exhaust of course. I know the owner. It will also be tuned by ASR, and have their magic sprinkled on it .
The two fastest E60 M5's in the US as per Dragtimes are prepped by ASR. My M5 is one of those two. 1/4 mile passes of 11.56 sec at 126 trap and my M5 running an 11.65 sec pass at 125.610 mph trap.

Join the ASR family, we'd love to have you. The outrageously great new ASR cold air-intakes are soon to be released. A marvel in design.

I'll PM you with more details.

Cheers, GT3Ranger...Juan
