New to me 08 CTT
Traded the 06 M5 for a slightly used (3K miles) 08 CTT.
I found this part already installed under the hood.. Not sure what the claimed power boost is but the car feels faster than the new one I tested.
Anyway we love this beast. It is so much more usable than our M5 was. The air ride and PDCC makes it zip around turns like the M5 (OK not quite but close enough). I am still getting use to the idea of flinging it around because it weighs so much.
We got the car for 90K. It is meteor grey and has the panoramic roof, PDCC and keyless start options. I had a chance to buy a new one from the local dealer, it was silver and had similar options plus a sport design kit kit. They wanted 110K for it, sold before I could make up my mind. Hopefully I got a decent deal for the used one.....
I have installed the NAV-TV Tooki kit, Sirius sat radio and had the dealer put a clear bra on. I am waiting patiently for the boys from EVO to offer me a way to tune it
What are the tuning options for the 08??? What else can I do to it? The mod itch never stops!!!

I have the same plenum on my 05 CTT, with K&N drop ins and Fabspeed DP made BIG difference! Works well with the GIAC chip.
I was able to pull dead even with my friend's M5 with 2 passenger. , but without passenger M5 still walks away from the CTT from 4th gear on...
Neverthless, fast SUV..
