So the car was started a couple of hours ago, I wasn't around, but he phoned me and the general message he was trying to convey was : "It all seems good and your car sounds absolutely amazing !" he then continued to make some of the wildest fake exhaust noises, one has heard, to further pronounce his thoughts.....

Thanks for all the comments, they will be passed onto them.

Coming soon !!

They had it on a dyno on around 22 December (FULL stock), and had it on one today, with just the new headers on....they are very happy with the results

Will get the more formal dyno testing etc done very soon. I think they want to have another, stock, M5 to do shadow runs that would coincide with the before and after header runs of my car....to show further clarity of the gains. They seem very confident indeed today.

He keeps going on and on and on about the sound !!!

Some further feedback, is that one of their biggest concerns during development, was any potential Noise/Vibration/Harshness issues, which they are pleased to report were unfounded ! "This is still a creamy smooth M5, but its always reminding you, it's is NO ordinary creamy smooth M5, it means business when called upon"

I am off to pick up my baby !
