Yep. I organised a group buy there years ago for B7 RS4's (when I had mine). They also tuned my E60 535d & my E60 M5.

She was very strong stock, in fact stupidly so.

Now just plain bonkers & she's putting out an insane 691bhp :biggrin3:

Yes Dave & Rob had what he described as his 'biggest dyno moment' when my car jumped on the rollers (caught the moment on my phone) At those power levels the usual motors on their Dyno are AWD so was quite a challenge to get her to behave. The 691 run wasn't ideal as my car was getting hot.

Hoping to check on Sunday en route to Nordschleife that the top speed limiter is off.

Could be interesting if Spa isn't dry :boots:

Quick question who has booked a garage for one or both days? Chris is trying to get us all in the same area

I booked and paid for two garages but only require one, if anyone wants to pay me for one or both days then let me know ASAP as Chris has a waiting list for any spare garages if there are no takers on here.
