Modded M6 vs E55 *video*

I met up with another member here and we took a short drive to mexico for a few friendly runs. First is about 30-115 and second run is 50-125. We planned on doing a dig too but didnt have time. Were still gonna do it soon though. My car has evo headers, AA exhaust/ecu, RPI scoops and BMC filters. It dynoed at 480rwhp.

Here we go again w/this BS! Always from a roll, never enough time from a dig. Almost a member people posting HUGE gains on a supposedly modded E. Does it ever stop?

Although I dont have many post Ive been on this board much longer than you. And yes a roll race plays to my strengths. There will be a dig race and we will have a video for that as well. We ran out of time though since we had quite the drive home from mexico

The intent of my post isnt to say my car is faster than e55s. I think we both expected the race to be closer. Both people are members here and there is an e55 in the video so why not post it? I Love AMG as much as I do M. I just happen to like this car more than any current AMG. I had a c32 before I got my m6 as you can prob tell by my username. Im well aware of the modding potential of the 55k engine. Its cheaper and produces more results than modding the s85 but I only have about 6k+labor in the car so Im very happy with the results.

yeah.. I know modded vs stock isnt a fair comparision but it was just a friendly race.

No I disagree. Not hatred. But why come on here and post a vid like that, (IMO) trying to get everybody all riled-up? I don't go on the M Board everytime I wax a bimmer. Hell, I would be over there all day!

OK guys we are being a bit harsh relative to his history, although a convert he was supposedly once a brethren. Your car is fast and sounds nice with that exhaust, im sure being in FL AA has your car pretty dialed in relative to your mods. Nice fun runs.

Anyone else notice he was in C transmission mode? Wonder how bad it would have been in S mode.

E55

Looks like this guy isn't the only one trying to make his car look like an E55. I think the car in the video was an E500 or maybe even an E350. That M6 isn't moving fast at all. Sorry, but I am calling
