No cant think of anybody, if you are really keen you could give RMS a call in the states, they may fly over a tech and convert your car ala RUF?

I know that Birds of Uxbridge are looking for someone to volunteer their M5 for precisely this purpose. They are an excellent tuning specialist and I suggest you contact them first. The phone number is (01895) 810850.

Keep us posted

Since you are so close to Germany why not stick with one of the continental tuners. G-Power in Germany or Racing Dynamice in Italy make a kit, I believe.

Hi Ashok

Ive spoken to Matt at Birds today and he's getting back to me, they are still in development phase of the system so time will tell!

550BHP for next years cannon ball run will be enough! I just want to make sure the car can outdrag a porsche gt2!
