I don't about you, but when I had my c6 z06 with 500+ horsepower it was good but when I got the supercharger with 600+ horsepower , it's was insane. Blink of a eye you will do 150+ mph from just a rolling start at 60 mph. I guess I miss that feeling.

Damn good for you for doing the mod. It has to be so much fun. Why did you go from the Z06 to the M5 in the first place? I really don't like the idea of spending more on the mods then the car is worth. I know people mod there bikes,cars all the time with the same problem. IF a cheaper one comes out I will do it.

i had the vett for while but that was before my 3 kids. I only had my first child when i had the vette but time change and 2nd child was born and follow by 3 third child. So, i have 3 wonderful kids, 5, 4 and 2 so the vette was a garage queen. didnt enjoy that much because, weekday was work week and weekend was for family time. so traded for the m5. now i can take my wife and my 3 kids in my Beast and have fun with all together.

i guess i am speed junkie.

I didn't see any info about the tranny choice at Dinan web site, I guess you can give them a call.

The Beast is 95% done, just need some little more work done, but almost done. Got the Dinan mid section exhaust with 4" resonator in today and we are ready to fire her up!!!

Here is some more pics. Enjoy.

All I can say is that you will be thrilled with the results. After over a year I am still in love.

Here is a video of mine doing 0-60 in 3.8 seconds on the Performance Box.

Not to mention that I didn't have an ideal launch, my tires were spinning throughout the run, and I didn't have the midsection then. I bet under ideal conditions, a 3.6 (or even faster) 0-60 is more than possible.

Finally a stroker in my neck of the woods (Maryland)! I would love to check it out after it is finished. Best of luck with the project!

Any interest in taking it to a 1/4 mile track? We are doing a track rental at MIR on December 18th.
