I realize it will cost more and probably not give the same types of gains, but I am waiting for the Dinan tune. I spoke with them today, release for M6 will be "early spring" You can also then sell the tune later or the car with the tune at a premium...Fully warrantied, no issues...I like that

Well Dinan is not out yet, ecu tuning group would void my warranty, and BMS is the best option at the moment. I might consider Manhart later on... 630 whp is still 724.5 hp crank (considering 15% RWD drivetrain loss), not bad for now. Any advice or some brilliant experience you would like to share Mr. Gmd2003?

With downpipes I realize my car has more than adequate power. Not going to tune.. too risky

Piggyback (plug and play) setups are scary.
Regardless how many cars are running them, being able to "manipulate" a few sensors operating range is not a safe manner to increase performance on these late model cars. There is just too much going on with these systems to be able to push your car to the max with having peace of mind that all the engine management functions can respond correctly when need be. But they are being made and people are running them. I would wait for a proper performance engine re-mapped file from a respectable tuner. |

I just installed the GT Haus full exhaust system including catless downpipes. With just the exhaust system this M6 put down 549HP and 499FTLB to the wheels on a Mustang Dynameter.
The charcoal filters are removed now and I have a custom engine tune being made by OE Tuning which is based out of Southern California. I will post up information on performance gains and lots of pictures in a new post within the next 2-3 weeks once its all finished and running great. |

Did you get a CEL with catless? Will OE tuning keep your warranty? For sure post pics and videos

This vehicle is going to their main facility for testing. That's what the hopes are for. I already have their performance tune which turned this car into another BEAST !! Having the "Check Engine" light off would be great too. I have no had a dyno run after their tune yet, still waiting on software to be error free. |

How did the AMS catted downpipes work out for you?

it's ok, but tbh all you need is a BMS tune (to get over 600whp) and an exhaust (akrapovic, meisterschaft, eisenmann) just for the sound.
