    Crossed 400 WHP – first impressions

    I’m very happy with this accomplishment and really can’t describe how much I am relieved to have finally managed to overcome the challenge of making this car one of the quickest s62s to date. This has been a very interesting project right from the beginning when it was sent abroad for the engine build, then the engine swap onto another car, then the troubleshooting and tuning. Ebrahim, Ayham, and Sal I can’t express how much you guys added value to this project.


    Got her tuned yesterday on a dyno and had Sal with me on the line sending me updated files from his desk in UK, while using Ayham’s tool to put the car on Dyno mode (sorry for keeping you late)
    Naj, Wael, and the dyno owner thank you both for helping around with those files and IT related stuff.

    Here’s a thread on M5 board showing the gains http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e39...ter-dubai.html

    I’m very pleased with the drastic change that the tune made, you can see it in the graphs in the link above. It really works if you ask and the car feels different and better in all aspects. I watched the car adapt to the tune pull after pull; the numbers keep on going up till they hold at certain figure.

      Wow ! Those are some serious numbers for an NA S62 engine, glad you finally accomplised what you started.. Wait until you get the Evolve headers, it will get even better..

          There is avery good reaosn why I always put the "Sir" before your name. And I am sure everyone in this club knows it now.

          You have turned the E39 into a real monster.

            brilliant base car and big time/effort/money put by bruno :bow: true BMW maniac, I still remember my only ride as a passenger in that E39 (not sure which one as Bruno had 2) when Bruno told Ayham in Das autoworks "the money spend on my BMWs can buy a GTR" Ayham replied "if you buy a japanese car I donot what to know you" :rofl: and I said "me neither" :evil: I just love how we all have different taste and we defend it, respect to the true bimmers :bow: , mabrook man I hope to see it running on the streets soon :)
            I am the Japanese spy in the BMW club :joking: :D

              And it's finally over. Thanks for the opportunity to let us demonstrate our craziness as a network of builders, tuners, and racers all coming together into this project. Last night's test was truly well worth the months spent on it.

              You enjoy the car now, well earned! Congrats...

                hopefully it should make some better numbers with the evolve headers and Reuters mufflers.

                btw yesterday i had my stock exhaust on :D

                      this is as far as i understand (correct me if i am wrong) a public forum, where people share ideas on how to make the bmw lifestyle better and more pleasurable and enjoyable..where we benefit from others mistakes and learn from our own ,share experiences..all in a common goal to make everything and everyone better, not the opposite.. do i need to remind everyone of all the laughs we had and how many times we shared food and shisha together..how many times we all stayed up late to fix anothers friend (brother) issues?? This is what makes a community, us, people..a common understanding and fellowship..respect
