A long while back I contacted MHD and they told me they have to many projects to even consider e70 x5m's.

looking back at the road i took when I upgraded to Pure stg 2's on my n54, A jb4 alone couldn't be used to fine tune the car, I had to get a MHD backend flash to be able to fine tune the car for max power, I had to get a bigger fuel pump, meth...

I have never been able to find any info with those on upgraded turbos on our x5m's, is our stock fuel system maxing out fuel trims, do our cars need a "stage 2 or 3" fuel pump to get big power from stage 2 turbos? Just not enough tuner support on the S63 platform
S63 uses Siemens MSD85.1

S63TU uses Bosch MEVD17.2.8.

As with most performance applications, Bosch will dominate. Why? I have no clue!

In my opinion until there's bigger fuel injectors or pump(s) there's no need to "fine tune".
