Hey all. I was finally able to take my stinger in for a dyno run, and thought you might like to see results. Also a couple of notes on the experience. 1st, probably save yourself some time if you can take it somewhere that is familiar with the Stinger. It took probably 1.5 hrs. for them to get everything setup. I was limited on my options since I'm pretty rural, and this speed shop dealt mostly with Classic restorations etc. 2nd, in the process of getting things dialed in the car did start to throw quite a few warning lights (I'm RWD by the way). TPMS, Auto Hold, ABS etc. This actually caused a bit of confusion as to what might be going on with the car, and led me down the wrong path for about 30 minutes. I finally realized with help from @Terry@BMS that it was a actually just a fuel bias issue. I'm getting better at reading my own logs, but still need assistance at times. In the end not a big deal on the warning lights, cleared the codes after the dyno was done, and all is well.

Because I was running out of time, I did the final runs on MAP4, and then MAP5. The best pull was in MAP5. She made 468 HP, and 565 Ft. Lbs. of TQ. I was satisfied with this, but I'm thinking with a little more time, and a custom MAP6, I could have pulled some more HP out of her. This was running an E59 mix (See all my mods in Signature). But hopefully this helps others understand realistically the range you can be in with specific mods. I chose all BMS from the start, and I don't regret that choice at all. Terry has been great, and because I added mods progressively over a year and went slow at each step, logged results, and then moved further up, I have not damaged the car. She purrs like a kitten and runs cleaner than when I got her stock. I'm also sharing the "spend" as of now. I'm only sharing what I consider to be performance mods $$ that got the car to this point (If I was going back I could have saved a few $ here and there). Hope this helps the community. Have fun out there!
