The DSE 1984 Monte Carlo is owned by Detroit Speed and is the Test Car for our line of G-Body Parts. This Monte Carlo was brought in as a stock vehicle. The car was first installed with drop springs to give the car an improved stance. Following the drop springs DSE installed the rear Swivel-Link's® followed by upper and lower control arms. After that, DSE installed the G-Body Anti-Roll Bars and eventually added a front and rear coilover kit. www.detroitspeed.com/Projects/DSE-1984-Monte-Carlo/DSE-19...

Meet Tim. Well...not the car, the car's owner. The car would be popularly known as "M CINCO" to most as Tim has grown pretty popular in the e39 m5 community. Tim was the inventor of Timmayfest, a national e39 m5 car meet lasting over 3 days in his hometown of Columbus Ohio. M5's from all over the country would come to hang out, talk shop, and just have a good time together. With a SLEW of M5's together, it's hard NOT to have a good time!
Tim himself is a wrencher. He has helped me personally countless time and is just a standup guy. When I purchased my m5, it was about the time to change the clutch. So Tim (again, being a standup guy, and loves wrenching) offered to facilitate the install and let us install the clutch in his garage. NOW LET ME BE CLEAR..."offered to facilitate" actually turned into him doing 90% of the work as "someone" (ahem) had a nasty hangover from his VP taking the night out before and may or may not have had to pull over on the way to Columbus to yack on the side of 71. aah yes, good times.
Besides Tim being able to tackle job from under the hood to ripping the entire interior out, he's actually a pretty good dude and hopefully we can hang out a bit more as he's about 2 hours away. ::bromance::.
Enough about Tim, let's hear about his M5!
Tim bought his 2001 BMW M5 in Dec of 2008 in bone stock form. Since then he's added an
-RMS Stage 2 Supercharger kit
-UUC V12 Segmented Kevlar Clutch Kit
-Dinan light weight wheels
-BC Racing Coilovers
-Dinan Rear Sway bar with Beast Power sway bar brackets
-Powerflex bushings
-Deleted the mufflers
-"Slimmbones" rear diffuser, front lip spoiler, trunk lid spoiler, and fog light covers.
-Full aftermarket sound system: Alpine INA-W910, PXA-H-800/RUX C-800, Alpine amps, Hybrid Audio Technology L831 3 way front stage and some Alpine Type-R 12" subwoofers.
Tim currently is putting down 556 hp and 456 lbs of torque at the rear wheels.
