    Default Volvo VS new M5

    well my boss has an M5... he has been talking shit about it ever since I started working here in Jan.... He now has about 5K miles on it so it is broken in. The way he found out I was into cars is a couple months ago he came over to my computer one day when I turned it on and when he saw a pic of my car he says "it's good to have goals like that"... I talk trash and told him I would beat whatever it was that he drove... his daily is a Porsche Cayenne that is his DD and he dangles the keys. I asked if he wanted to go for titles. A couple of the guys that have been in the volvo told him that he better not do it, lol. Then he says he has a backup... the M5. I am like, well I have more power but man would I like to go against that. Today I had my chance. We were smoking cigars and he asks if I want to drive his car... I am all "HELL YEAH!". This thing was rediculously nice... duh.

    and the result... the volvo is teh fasterer from a dig, from 25, from 60 and from 90.

    That is all.

    oh, he had an exhaust for what it's worth and I am far from stock.

    If he wanted to GIVE you his cayenne, I would have taken it w/ a quickness. And if you didn't need it, you coulda given it to your bestest IA friend!

    Question not sure about that...

    Dude kind of hard to believe .... when I've seen a stock fully break-in M5 beat a porsche w/ over 600hp to the wheels, or an M5 with reflash, cams and high-flow cats beat a Gallardo.

    I will like to see a video of you pulling on that M5.

    A lot of this cars are own by people that do not have the guts to race them. Besides that a lot of people beat the drivers not the cars.

    I used to beat E46s M3s left and right and I remember when I meet Boris he beat me by a 1 CL. on a bone stock M3 it was the drivers not the cars.

    Just a thought.

    If it did not happen in fact, how can someone say his car is faster w/out racing..... It does not matter if one drives the 2 cars and comes with a conclution base on ones own feelings.... this will be just ass-suming shit

    there are factors like suspention dinamics, tire specs, gear ratios, power ratios, efficiency factors ETC.. that will dictate whos car is faster

    like having 480whp in a AWD will not be efficient on top end speed, in a RWD car with 400whp.

    Just I thought.

    I did not read this thread, just the title & thread preview. Are you sure the M5 had his car in the M-Drive/Sport setting? Otherwise you beat a 400 HP M5.

    definitely 500bhp... just FYI I have almost 500 AWHP and am 600 pounds lighter in the curb weight dept... The hp is thanks to my APC muffler and some other go fast goodies I found at AutoZone.

    Sweet. I'm assuming you have the sweet lighted winshield fluid nozzles as part of this lingenfelter'ish power package.

    I almost bought an S60 a few years back, but they just didn't have enough power for me.

    Awesome S60-R! My older bro has one (stock 6-speed) and it's a lot of fun to drive. Personally I like the way it looks over the M5. The M5 is a cool car, but the shape just doesn't do it for me. Good job though! Are you on Swedespeed?

    Gtech says I am 0-60 in ... not going to tell but slightly faster than the M5. I do have an APC muffler though and the M5's muffler was stock.


    Gtech was right in line with factory claims when stock and 1/4 times right in line with track slips.

    We got this frase that we used in the pit lane.. some data beats no data...

    G-Tech might not be the most accurate but is data and any data acquisition on the level of racing we chat about in here is priceless. Besisdes that I remember one open track day at RA, when a guy I know was having problems with his GPS data acquisition system and I had to look up a AMB transponder for him... once again good for lap times only, but better some data that no data at all

    so every magazine that has tested them and said they are right on is wrong? And after ... about 50 some 1/4 mile passes on a track and mine being scary close... all 50+ times were flukes? Just because you heard something from a freind who heard...

    they ARE accurate IF you use them right. I do have dynos and timeslips to validate though. But more importantly, they are consistent. So, the way dynos are MEANT to be used... as a tuning tool; the Gtech works great for this.

    Magazine racing are we? Scary close doesn't mean it's right. I could probably watch a car run the 1/4 and come as close as a G-tech. I know guys at the track who can do that and come scary close.
    I stand by my opinion, G-tech is trash.
