Re: Check out this 500HP M5 smoking a 996 X50 and a 470Hp 993Ruf
I saw the video and I can say only one thing: NOS. 
You need a 996 Turbo with around 569 HP to smoke a 996 Turbo X50 in the same way as the M5 did in the video.
So trust me: this M5 never had only 500 HP and if you carefully watch the video, you can see that the M5 is behind and suddenly comes close pretty fast to the 993 RUF and 996 TT X50. I think the M5 owner had a little switch or two somewhere...
But it is a very nice video. 
Thanks.

Quoted from the owner.
"These impressive outputs were achieved by extensively modifiying the engine's internals and changing the complete exhaust system. The cylinder-heads were gas-flowed and the valves re-shaped. The entire inlet tract was bench tested and re-configured to flow more air, the exhaust manifolds were redesigned and bespoke high-lift camshafts developed to make full use of the enhanced breathing ability. the electronic engine management system was re-mapped to optimise fuelling and ignition. you have deferent stages to chose from 1- 425hp, 2- 450hp, 3- 503hp, 4- 520hp, 5- 530hp but its not legal to register this car with the 530hp in Europe or the US because of the exhaust."
Those videos are from Saudia Arabian. From this images I believe only a + 600 Hp Porsche 996 Turbo would keep the pace with this M5.
Here some more videos. Next one is a Diablo being smoked at more than 250Kph, unbelieveble but true. On the first side by side the Diablo is completely trashed

And this one is a AMG SL 500 with 500Hp, but let me say that this AMG seem to have 200Hp next to the M5, again unbelieveble and great fun video.

Enjoyable footage
What really p*sses me off about this country (UK) is, just before I looked at this thread I read in today's paper that a guy got put in jail for 5 months for doing 156mph on a dual carriage way -now OK he was banned at the time, but the comments from some "officails" :
"absolutely outrageous", "suicidal", "should be banned for life", "reckless beyond beleif", "horrified by the cavalier attitude of the driver". You get suspended sentence for mugging, theft etc but speeding
Getting back to that video, I note that the M5 seems to be gaining once the speeds get fairly high. From memory dodn't the GT2 tested in that SL test at nardo do 200-300kph in around 26seconds compared to 18 for the SL (OK I know that car was exceptionally fast) Is it possible that the M5 did indeed have a "proper" 500+ hp and its areodynamics gave it the advantage ? Or maybe Mr Nowak goy a little help from a couple of his Porsche owning buddies to promote his new motor

That M5 is a Nowack N500, it has 500RWHP still N/A, no S/C or Turbo OR NOS. I am an active member on that board (bmwm5.com), and I can tell you that this car doesn't have NOS, just has a lot of HP. This is a video of the member "apples" car and it is natural, and does NOT have NOS. If you think that M5 is fast you should see a guy I know on there Abdula (member name:Black M5)'s car. He has an RMS S/C M5 with 603RWHP!!!!!!
Anyway just wanted to let ya guys know about the car.
Here is a link to his car(video's and pics)
