Just picked up a 2010 X5M

Jimshorts · 07-31-2012, 04:08 PM

Decided to get out of cars and back to an SUV. Went with a blue 2010 x5m and decided to go with eurocharge for a tune.

The truck is a blast to drive so far but I'm already looking for just a little more power. The tune should really wake it up.

This was the former car that I got out of. 2005 Mercedes E55 AMG has some shorty headers and a tune on it. Looking to go the same route with the X5 and really see wha these things are capable of.

Nice!
By the way, how much did you sell the E55 for?

Jspan · 08-01-2012, 12:33 AM

Thanks guys it really is an awesome truck. I learned quite a bit from modding the benz and have that itch now. These things are awesome platforms with so much potential. Will definitely keep you guys updated with everything I do. Hopefully Illl get a baseline dyno and some 1/4 mile times for you and then toss the tune on and see the real results. Ive heard some good things about the Eurocharged tune and I loved the one I had on the E55. Ended up running a 11.9 @ 118 with shorties and tune alone on street tires. Right now the goal with the truck is to see an 11sec pass on just a tune alone then work from there.

Car ended up going for 15k on trade-in. I drove that thing into the ground and definitely needed a few grand in work by the end. So honestly thats all it was really worth. On a cold night with some DRs on it I could have seen a mid 11 sec pass with close to a 120ish trap... Fun car but love SUVs.

LOL, I did the exact same thing but opted to get a 07 4.8. Must have been hard to get rid of the beast, wish I still had mine.
