you have the same style garage doors as your neighbor across the street from you... maybe you should mod that next and put a 100hp motor so it goes from closed to open in 0.35 sec! Then again... how do i know you haven't already done that?!LOL

Enjoy in health SW, congrats! The car looks mean and now has the true power to outrun pretty much anything.
Damn, not only your cars but even your wife is hot
Thanks, She has outlasted all the cars I have had in the past 20 years.

Member georgefu gorgeous Dinan 5,7 liter Stroker BMW M5 Sapphire Black on HRE P40 in Hong Kong
Car is running strong. As for pictures Gustav, I did not have the time. Got one picture left of the new engine in the bay and another that is complete.
Selected quotes from earlier posts below, selected by Gustav:
"I have the stroker installed here in China. Any BMW dealer with M5 experience can do it. The swap is exactly the same procedure as if the engine was from BMW. DINAN will send you the block with all internals. All the dealer has to do is remove all the electronics from your old engine and install it on the new one. The most difficult part is installing the throttle bodies back as it requires calibration.
PM me if you need more info"
The power band is linear yet it comes on earlier and it just pulls all the way to redline. 1st and 2nd gear is just ridiculous because there is just no traction. Blew away my friends M6 who is now having nightmares and has already ordered the full S3 package. Torque is readily available so the need to downshift has been dramatically reduced. Gear shifts are actually smoother. I guess the billet crank "mates" better with the SMG
I can't speak for the M6 but the suspension has transformed my car. It is pretty impressive. The handling has improved in all respects, reduced roll, understeer has improved tremendously, the rear of the car just follows. The transfer between powering on the rear wheels and braking is much more responsive and balanced. Steering response is unreal, it makes counter steering so much more fun to do. The monoballs are not for everyone, it literally links the whole front suspension into one tight unit and acts like a tuning fork. So hard bumps will resonate into the interior. My advice is stage 2 if you want to retain the comfort. Stage 3, if you want to be "one" with the beast
