Dinan M5 headers etc.
I was also at the Sear's Point race talking with the Dinan guys about their 'test' M5 in the staging area before the parade lap. I think the +40 HP included the full exhaust system and CAI. They alluded to more HP from intake trumpet (inside the airbox) tuning, ceramic paint on the airbox (inside and out), and a few other "secret things" that were in the works. We asked if the combined output was 450 and they smiled and nodded upwards implying the new mods would be higher than that.
I know they have also been working on a Supercharger kit and are stuggling through US and Ca. emissions. I am sure it will produce way more than 500 HP.
They also let me hold one of their new Dinan wheels. I think it was the 18 x 9.5" which weight about 16 pounds -- considerably lighter than the stock wheels.
