Was waiting for just this. Such a letdown

@gregnatonson6970 4 года назад

Greg hasn’t been seen in days. By tracing his credit card charges at gas stations we can se he has been making his way toward Germany for a blast on the autobahn. Seriously, I’m totally stoked. It’s like the car I always dreamed it should be after seeing the BMW Guy Ritchie movie-ads when the car was new. I wrote a song for OJ as well.

@GarryMcGovern 4 года назад

Having not noticed that he only had 200 horses for the last 3 years, I doubt he actually drove it any differently AFTER the tune either: how could you not notice your M5 was pumping out less power than a Golf GTi?

@johnbcardin 4 года назад

Orfan Productions when you look at the torque pre tune it was around 260-280 in the 2000-3000 range which was not terribly far from the tube torque in that range. If he was using it as a cruiser/weekend car it probably didn’t feel off in that lower rpm range which probably masked the problem. I was really hoping we would get his initial impressions too.

@GarryMcGovern 4 года назад

@@johnbcardin Are you seriously trying to make excuses for this? That in 3 years of ownership - cruiser/weekend car or not - he never once accelerated past 2/3000 rpm? Yeah, ok man, you're right: it actually is totally understandable that he had no idea his car was 40% down on power the whole time.

@Streamlined955 4 года назад

That guy is the BMW Whisperer. He predicted what was going to happen before it actually happened every time. I wish I lived near to him.

@celicasaur 4 года назад

No word of a lie, my M5 had an Alpha N tune already but it generally was sluggish and very lacklustre to drive, even after fitting a 3.62 rear end. However once I'd done the IAT relocate mod and disconnected the MAFs, it genuinely started to come alive. It was improved for sure, but at the back of my mind, I thought maybe the cam sensors needed changing or something. But then today I wanted to replace my steering wheel, so I inadvertently reset the adaptations by disconnecting the battery. When I went for a drive in the evening, holy moly it really was a spectacular night and day difference. First gear is a blur and second gear gives me such a shove back in the seat that it brings a huge grin to my face. I wouldn't be surprised if my M5 showed similar gains on the dyno like this car here too.

@Rick2010100 4 года назад

The first thing i would have done by such weak performance: air filter check, cleaning the needle in the air mass sensor with break cleaner, check the sparks, run the car with injection cleaner addtitive reset the ECU and teach them new.

@pauljoe780 4 года назад

You must have done this so many times. But next time, if you use brake cleaner, first make sure you look at the big words on the front of the can. Then you`ll know you`ve picked up the right can. Don`t ever use break cleaner. That`s terrible stuff.

@Rick2010100 4 года назад

@@pauljoe780 The small needle in the air flow sensor can only be cleaned with hard chemicals and break cleaner is perfect for this, you dont need much, just a short spay and after soaking a second. It´s just about get rid of the dirt film.

@erikwallebom 4 года назад

I've had two E39 M5 and both had dirty MAF's. To check the status of the engine power output you can use the service menu in the instrument cluster (google it). Find the real time liter/hour measurement. At full throttle in 3rd gear (or whatever gear) at max rpm it should consume about 160 liters/hour. Mine did 100 liters/hour. I cleaned the MAF's and it was restored to 160l/h and surely felt quicker.

My dyno tuned E46 M3 makes 300 to 310 RWHP depending on temperature. I have seen naturally-aspirated versions of my S54 straight six make around 400 horsepower using special intakes and special tunes. It takes a lot of money just to gain that. Not sure how much. One guys tune came all the way from Dubai. The air boxes are all carbon fiber and cost a small fortune.
