2001 BMW 540i 6 speed

The E39 5 Series is one of my favorite body styles of modern BMWs. Been a lifetime fan of BMW and want to work for the company one day. My car is named Alsvartr after an Emperor song, and means "all black". It was purchased from my neighbor who had all the work done to it. Has couple of mods, but I've never actually dyno'd it, so I can only estimate how much power its putting out. I think it is roughly 350 hp and 375-380 ft/lbs of torque. Maybe more. It moves along pretty effortlessly, and sounds mighty nice to boot. It has a couple nice mods. I don't intend for it to be a dragstrip queen, but I enjoy the mountain roads out here.

- Dinan Intake
- Dinan Exhaust
- Dinan High flow throttle body
- Dinan Performance Engine Software
- Dinan Intake Manifold

I plan to swap out wood trim for aluminum trim. Long term, I'd love to get a supercharger. But that is pretty long term.

July 26th: Specially ordered German spec black leather M5 center console armrest to replace the crappy US spec vinyl/plastic console. Old one slid forward and was uncomfortable, this is comfy, slides forward and opens up for storage. Win/win baby!
