Have you gone Full Throttle already with the M5 before Break-In?

Many say that there is no change in the M5's software or performance after Break-In and that only fluids are changed, but I'm not 100% convinced. How much horsepower is your X5M making with the tune? Are you mashing the X5M on the roll or from a standstill. From a roll the M5 with Sport+ everything, especially with the Comp Pack, will be faster than a tuned X5M. A Comp Pack M5 is making somewhere north of 600hp stock and weighs almost a 1,000lbs less than the X5M.
