X5M Power upgrades (Supersprint + ECU...)
Hi up, guys.
 Nice to meet you all. I'm writing from Spain. I own an '09 EDM X5M with a rear Ac Schnitzer exhaust. Rest is stock..........by the moment. I'm looking to upgrade my car and i've been talking to G-power, Active Autowerke, ESS, PP Performance, Etc....... My best selection by now is PP-Performance who offers the "Stage 2" package consisting of software + downpipes that would run on 650HP/850NM and i think it's worth the money (6500$ aprox...) My second "homemade" selection is to install all the Supersprint exhaust line (except for the rear exhaust) plus headers (not available at Supersprint, any suggestions???) and look for a good tuner (Active Autowerke Performance Software + Hand held programmer sounds great, waiting for your feedback...http://store.activeautowerke.com/act...ware-p150.aspx http://store.activeautowerke.com/act...imon-p211.aspx) With Supersprint i decat completely and hope sound and throttle response to be amazing!!! Any other advices??? The problem is i live overseas and in my country there's no choice at all.......  When i owned my ex '09 GTR i worked with Benji Linney from GTC and my car was tuned by means of COBB. I managed a perfect ROCKET and i would like to achieve the same stuff again!!! So nice to meet you again and loving to hear your preaches!!!  Pics of my car:   |

Not the most active of sections here. I'm contemplating simliar options as well to what you have listed.
Have you looked at Evolve-R for tunes? Do you have any video/audio of your AC Schnitzer exhaust? |

i've seen a lot of videos of pp performance x5/x6m's on youtube and they look pretty fast. if warranty wasnt an issue for me I would consider getting SS catless dp's with the ess tune.

Not yet, mate. Give me a few weeks and i will show you nice vids........  I'm having troubles to find the headers. Do they worth it? Is it going to be a REAL great mod??? I'd like to know the real difference between stocks and G-power's, for example.......... Regards |
