Hey Russ,

Thanks for the pics, footage and most importantly letting us know about the Dyno Day !!

Your car looks and sounds great too !

By the way what was your HP figure ? It was definitely storngest E39 M5 on the day. I remember it was around the 385 HP that the E92 M3 was pushing out !

I cant wait to tell all the E46 guys on Mtorque LOL !

Mine only showed 359 HP but still chuffed in relation to the E92 M3 and the way it pulls !

Thanks

Kumaran

The dyno figures were

381 bhp
312 lbsft.

We will have to have a meet up next year - I was thinking a day trip to France
It very accessible to us in the south east.
