My M6 made 677whp 735wtq DME S3 tune! (PICS)

This is long over due but First I'd like to thank Mo @ DME Tuning and Ted @ Europower Houston for their outstanding work and service! At the time I only had Active Autowerke Catless downpipes and DME Stage 3 tune. Truly impressed with how much power these cars make!

Wow, that must really be moving now. I've been in contact with DME and the customer service is incredible. I will defenitely be having them tune my car in that basis alone. Just curious what is the point of adding jb4? how many miles are on your car?

The customer service is beyond great! I had 21k miles on my car when I first got this done I now have 53k miles about 12k miles on the SSP Clutches. Out of every car I have owned and currently own this M6 is by far my favorite after I modified it.

Have you had any issues AT ALL or check engine lights? I bet you probably feel like you need more power now too lol. Why are you adding a JB4 on top of their tune?

I have had 0 issues, DME & Europower recommended clutches to prevent any damage so I went ahead and did it.

I'm adding the jb4 cause I would love to pull more power out of the car. I race the car every now and then so I'd like to have an advantage.

At what point of the power band is the upgraded clutch needed? Looking to do a Stage 1 but also trying not to introduce issues to my transmission.

Thanks

That's correct, I resent my computers to DME Tuning after installing the JB4. Map 2 is pretty much what my tune is, maybe 1-2psi more than before and map 8 is for E85 mix or race fuel which also has higher boost it to 27-28psi. Overall the car feels amazing.

Around 720wtq I've seen people run into slippage. With stage one you'll be ok.

720 is a bit high.

i'd say the cut off is 650-665, this has been discussed ad nauseam on the m5 side.
