California-based BMW tuner Dinan has recently announced a new trackday performance exhaust for the E60 M5.
"So," you may ask "how is this relevant?"
First:
RENNTECH and Dinan have always had a good working relationship, and RENNTECH's Lake Park, FL R&D facility has been an official Dinan performance center since 2006 (Dinan's California-based factory service center is also an authorized RENNTECH installation facility).
Second:
*I* am Dinan's South Florida performance specialist (have been since August '07, just been neglecting it a bit). In any event, I'm pretty excited about this latest offering, which should give the big 10 a real "F1" type of sound and build mad gobs of crazy, bedwetting, high-rpm horsepower ... which is exactly what the car needs, of course!
Dinan's official press release is below.
RACING MIDDLE EXHAUST SYSTEMS FOR THE E60 M5
With and Without Resonators
Racing Product
The anxiously awaited Dinan racing middle exhaust systems will soon be available in several configurations, depending upon just how loud you would like your M5 exhaust note to be. The nearly 8 foot long section is fitted with header flanges for a clean installation, featuring large 2.75" 304 stainless tubing. Two versions are currently available with one featuring 4" resonators for an aggressive exhaust note that will surely turn some heads. The “straight pipe” version does not include resonators, producing an incredible exhaust note, albeit quite loud. If the straight pipe version is installed and proves to be a bit too much, the 4" resonators can be purchased and installed subsequently.
It should be noted that this is a racing product and therefore is not legal for sale or use on any pollution controlled motor vehicles. Legal only for racing vehicles which may never be used upon a highway. Dinan racing products are warranted for 2 years, covering materials and workmanship only. Dinan’s standard matching new car warranty coverage does not apply to racing components.
