Just passing by and reading this thread and I wanted to say that this is the WORST WAY to do it. 
Use dyno mode if you want ESP to be FULLY off.
You DO NOT lose Air bags when ESP is off or in dyno mode.
Where do you get these ideas?
Use dyno mode if you want ESP to be FULLY off.Read my thread, last one on DYNO mode. Yes it will COMPLETELY remove the ESP, but at a cost. No ABS, ESP, or Air bags. In my experience, on a road course, it is WORTHLESS. Many, and I do mean many E55 owners DO NOT use it for dragging either. When you turn it into Dyno mode, you will have MASSIVE one wheel spin. Give it a try on a empty road, you WON'T like it my friend.
See yeah
PS: Yes even with ESP off, it is still lurking in the background, aka not FULLY off.

Sorry, but it is true. Put it in dyno mode and your center screen will tell you what is off as it scrolls through, and yes my 04 says AIRBAGS my friend. This is where the information came from, as well as Numerous GREAT people on this thread. WOW, they are NOT ideas my friend but facts.
Note: I never said this about ESP being off, if you read my threads.
See yeah

I find this impossible to believe - especially because no one has mentioned it in the past. No disrespect meant.
EDIT: To be fair, I did just find a thread where MB Fanatic stated that you lose airbags. But no one commented about that. Maybe its on pre 2005 vehicles or something? VERY weird.
