It probably is.. I'm just saying with those mods he's probably ~60whp above stock? just spit balling that. I just would love to see how it would be if the E55 was allowed equal mods, how that would be judged I don't know though..

Lol just giving u a hard time. I was really close to getting that model m5, the TQ just didn't cut it for me and the modding potential of the E55 was much better and cheaper. Would have to get the Dinan stroker kit to get to the level on a full bolt on e55.

No crank pulley, no headers, no throttle body lol. My car for mild mods held up great vs a well put together m5. I don't know what's all this crying about. I've been racing for years and I've never had to deal with so much "drama". All in all every race was close, the end lol

With very mild mods and probably having a wiped tune from the dealer I held up great for the all the mods that M5 had. I'm on REAL stock headers that came originally from the factory which are called stock and Mercedes stock made real primary cats.

Exactly what I was saying, for what you had you seem to have held up pretty well! As for the question of FBO M5 VS FBO E55.. There was a hint of sarcasm in that post... Assuming FBO on our cars is what I'm thinking of (Crank/sc pullies, LT headers, and cooling) we all know how that would turn out. Lol

Looks like your confidence isn't there anymore lol when I used to say u should hang with m5 till about 120ish or 130 and than its m5 territory you were laughing and saying no way the m5 will pull after you figure out your shifting.

Hey gzim I said it that he is faster everywhere on this tread on my YouTube video but I said that mine both 02 sensors are shot actually fried and my cyl number 6 had misfire and when I raced I showed you guys my CEL on my car but I raced but of course his car is faster then mine since I only have primary deleted,secondary deleted and k&n filters my car moved like a monster happy for how she held her self vs that m5 so let se what TUNE is going to do that's all!
I just feel like we're taking away from his win by saying cars weren't running rite cuz otherwise he wouldn't have won but we all know that's not the case that's all

It's like the beaten to death 335 vs m3 thing
Having a supercharged engine from factory is already an advantage over n/a at least when it comes to modding

^ more like 335 beating up on c350. M3 and 335 are two different categories
What about the trans the m5 has a better trans compared to e55 and it's v 10 and high revving and about 100 lbs lighter but all that still don't make up for the blower I guess.

I'd be willing to go as far as saying a crank/sc pulley car by itself, if the set up was aggressive enough such as a 175,180/X, with cooling could pull an M5 FBO.. So that would be two power adders and cooling against that list of M5 mods.

Wether its 100% or not I don't know but all the stock everything talk made me confident and confirm I was probably on stock flash considering I've raced these m5's stock, tuned , 6 speed, modded etc.
We should do 2 people in each car. I'll even take up to extra 50 lbs. get to camera views. I was out in front by a nose mode of the way and if u listen to the video u hear u hit it right before me. Just saying

Mid mod E55 = Tune + Mid header (Kleemann) + Crank pulley.
OP did not even have the ECU tune ! only running the SC pulley which only increase 20Whp top.
