m5 re-mapp and exhaust 570bhp?
hi guys
im thinking of more power and torque as you guys are aware.
i have found a company that can get me 570 bhp from a re-map and exhaust. but i cant see this happening.
they are called vtune.me.uk. has anyone heard of them or dealt with them.
if i could 570 bhp from this i would be happy.what strains would this put on my engine?
i have just ordered hartge springs for my car after having 2 new front shocks
replaced by BMW. the car is much better now.thank god!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks guys!!!!

As long as companies continue to claim crap #s, we'll see plenty of these threads. Definitely ask to see before and after dynos and have them put you in contact with others who have had the work done for their opinions or charts. Agreed, be very suspicious.

This smells like poo...ohh wait is a crock of poo...
Fellow M5boarder, our cars are very optimized out of the factory...70 oh wait 63bhp out of a tune "if possible" would put some much strain on the engine that you might only see your running beast for a week...
Please do not take the bait there is no way a catback system will give you 40-30bhp nor a tune 40-30more either...so run as far as you can from that tuner, you might have an extra $1500-$2000 for your next mod...
JMHO.

Not really.
These motors were run at power levels of 600+hp at the factory for 24 hrs
straight without problems during development. This engine can take alot.

our cars come optimized from the factory FOR STREET USAGE.
600 hp from a revvy 5.0l V10 unit is cake if you don't mind rebuilds every 50 hrs...haha

the test 570bhp
well im gonna put it to the test.
i will arange an independant dyno.i will book my car in for dyno before
its done.Then i will book it in.then get another dyno done.i really dont
know what to expect but this test will prove alot.i will post my stock
dyno soon.the only thing that concerns me is that they are offering a 12
month warranty and only 30k,well that type of mileage i can do in 6 months...what happens if my engine goes poo?????can these cars run rich like old cars and burn out valves and pistons?????
thanks guys.
