2007 GT Deluxe M5 weighs 3420 lb with 1/4 Tank (5 Gal) of fuel. The Premium isnt that much heavier.
Leather instead of cloth and Shaker 500 instead ofstd 80W CD Player. Cant say on the Saleen Conversion.

Looking at your dyno, something looks wrong... What kinda fuel system are you running? Your AFR's are WAY too fat up top, and I would also guess that your dropping spark too from how hard the graph drops off there at about 5500 rpms. Any upgrade to ignition?

Also, to anyone who says that LCA's are a waste... with just LCA's and UDP's, I went from a 13.57 bone stock to a 13.22... and most will agree that those UDP's are only maybe .1 of that drop... Took me from a 2000 rpm launch withwheel hopto a 3500 rpm launch with nothing but traction.

Everyone that has gotten the control arms says that they made no difference at all, I wanted the subframe connectors more for a piece of mind, i dont want to twist the frame during a launch.

On a side note, where do you have the nozzle for the meth injection? Any pics of it?
its cold out! lol Ill take some pics later, The meth for now, is being put into the washer Fluid box!! I ordered the battery relocation kit to get it moved to the trunk so i can add a resivor for the meth and get my washer fluid back!
He's asking where on the air path are you putting the meth in
pre-IC, post-IC, TB, right after the s/c?

If he is running the setup I think he is runningthere is noper IC or post ICbecause he is not running an intercooler he is running an alcohol injection setup, which hasa number of advanages over a a-w ora-aintercooler setup.
