As soon as we found out that Dinan had finally finished its S3-M6 we were on the next plane to San Jose. Thanks to a stroker kit that increases displacement from 5.0-liters to 5.7-liters, the M6 now pumps out 628 hp at 7500 rpm and 480 ft-lbs of torque at 6000 rpm.
The M6 was always a fast car… now it’s a monster! In true Dinan fashion, the S3-M6 is more than just a big motor. In fact, the entire car is a completely re-engineered package. Steve Dinan refers to it as a BMW version of a Ferrari 599 GTB. Be sure to pick up the Nov/Dec issue of Modified Luxury & Exotics for our full review and see if Steve Dinan should be give an engineering award or locked up in an insane asylum. In the mean time, enjoy these clips that show just how hard laying down 628hp can be. ![]() http://www.modifiedle.com/videos/video_0015.html |

I wouldn't think so...not with an increase of .7 liters in displacement.

Haha, we're prob still talking about like 8k revs. I just don't think it'd be able to rev as easily as the stock version.

Nice!
I am sure there's lots of people on here that still think their 335's are faster than that beast! To be honest, I don't know what I'd possibly do with all of that power on public roads.
