I'll probably use FSR Motorsports; they actually mentioned wanting to throw it on the dyno one day to see so I said in a few weeks when they have some time just for fun.

My guess would be the X5D would probably be around 240-250rwhp and 380-400rwtq.
As for what it makes now...we'll have to see. I'll be happy with 300rwhp and 450rwtq. It doesn't have turbo upgrades or meth so there's no way it'll be over 330rwhp...boost mappings are conservative for a stage 2 as well since I have requested reliability over power and I'm not a fan of pushing the turbo's so far out of their efficiency range that they pump heat.

The main point of the upgrade was to make it more reliable and fun to drive; the secondary benefits were the mpg and noise...only drawback is the soot on WOT but it can be easily used for fun factor as well.

I think the next thing for reliability would be to remove the swirl flaps and bypass the EGR Cooler (coolant side)...otherwise I'm pretty happy with it.
