Default Dinan M6.. turn up your speakers

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.

does it qualify it to have the cool DINAN badge? Or do I need to buy floormats and matching coffee mugs?

Wow. I think I'd leave the traction control on though.
