Last dyno was 520WHP and 424ft-lbs torque. Unfortunately, while creating a Dragy Performance file, the clutch started slipping. As a result, test drives are not possible. Rather than spend more repair / build money, we decided to sell. Clutch replaced with a stronger version --- OSG STR2C. Gotta mention that it is a "CATLESS" build, so might not be street-legal in some areas. Engine is in great shape and can be listened to, monitored, etc. I was expecting a 150+MPH run in the ½ mile category.
If interested and more info is wanted, send me an email address via PM and I'll answer any questions, send pics, data, etc.
Not looking to buy but I am curious to know how you keep it on the road under acceleration.
Two hands on the wheel and lotsa concentration --- torque-steer is fierce! Only a problem at high RPM's, where the power curve is highest, and this doesn't happen often, especially in town. Pretty easy to get around slow cars on the hwy's, just use extra caution.
Aaaaaaand this is EXACTLY why I wanna get an r56..
I know it's a long shot but would you be interested in my FULLY modified/ built r53 ?? Here's it as it sits..

Very long shot, and it missed. Sorry, but I'm getting away from built cars, unless they're factory built --- no more "aftermarket" performance marriages. I'm at the stage where I want warranties.
Tired of waiting for "the right buyer". Sold it to a "Muscle car" dealer for just over book "Auction Value" of $2450. Because there's no catalytic converter, it's only legal to sell in a couple NV counties. To make it legal to sell everywhere, would totally destroy the tune and performance. Dealer plans to market it in the areas where it's legal. I typed up some info on the SPS switch, WMI mix and tune characteristics, hopefully the next owner will get to read it. No intention to keep tabs on where it goes, just wish the next owner "all the best".
To all those that are building for catless power, ensure you can add a cat and pass emission inspection prior to selling, if required. And be sure to get your investment money's worth of enjoyment while you can, there's little chance you'll get it back on resale.
Now to get rid of the "extra stuff" accumulated over the years ---
