Jorge my plan is to meet you at your house at 7:45-7:50 then I'll follow you down to MAP so we arrive around 8:30 and I can at least be one of the first people to ask them if they can squeeze me in for a dyno run that morning. If not then that is fine I'll watch your run and eventually everyone else will show up and we can figure things out from there.

Yes that's cool Max Joe is coming to my house to so I want to leave as early as we can. The last meet they had at map was a zoo. The GPS got us close but it was hard to find.

I received a call from the body shop on Friday evening informing me that White Heat will not be completed by Saturday, but instead on Saturday Depending on what time I receive the call to pick her up, I'll swing by the meet. I'll call Jorge to meet you guys if it's not too late; I hope you haven't changed your number since I last talked to you lol.

Good to see everyone who showed up. For those who could not make the dyno event, Jorge made 295 hp and I made 213 hp.

What about me? Well if anyone cares I did a maximum 426hp at 7400 rpm and 322 lbft of torque at 6200 rpm or exactly what a stock M5 should do. What happened to Youie?

Wow, not bad numbers Jorge. Maybe and RV6-V3 jpipe might bump those numbers up 1 or 2 HP, i'd imagine better flow than the original RV6 jpipe.

Yes we should have done a honorable mention about Max. Now that That's done I had fun seeing every one that showed. Those who didn't show you were missedJake, Yussef, Travis etc.

The majority of us on here own a 3rd Gen, or a 2nd Gen. Those sites you mentioned would be your best sources.

Sorry, I was out of state all last week for work. Sounds like a good time though! I've already tucked away the TL in the garage for hibernation!

What you looking to do? I'd recommend performance shop that do welding like Fullblown or Modern Automotive Performance. If you just need something cheap done not requiring welding, I'd go to local exhaust stores like Midas to small owners with their custom little exhaust shops. Which does no good so go great to the guys that builds things that will put your money longer.
