Exclamation Racing Dynamics Power System?
Just toodling around various tuners' sites. Racing Dynamics is marketing a whole-hog system, 505 HP / 465 TQ for $42,600. I suspect it's Nowack's stuff...?

BUT they also offer a 454 HP / 391 TQ kit for $10,900!

Part Number 140 62 39 501
POWER SYSTEM R50S (v.1A)
454HP 391lb-ft E39 [S62 B50] M5

"The Power System is the entry-level performance package. It consists of Sport Camshafts, Dual Sport Exhaust, ECU reprogramming, and intake."

This is almost tempting, for crying out loud...it's halfway to 500 horse for a quarter the price...

Anyone got this?!
Alps!

Do this and a 3.45 and I think you'll get a lot of bang for the buck comparatively...!

Why not go with the Kelleners Sport Stage 2 package? I think it is even cheaper than that and promises 65+ hp, as our Euro board members could tell you.

Ever since that whole scandal with Hartge, I do not trust RD. They have also been pretty unpopular lately, especially here in Southern Cali. I hardly see any RD stuff on BMW anymore, unlike 5 years ago.
