Since its recent European market introduction, many a M5 fan has been waiting to see the tuning potential of the new F10 M5 and its beefy 560hp bi-turbo S63Tu engine. The first F10 M5 ECU tune has now been released, by the German tuning company, PP-Performance.
They were recently able to crack the factory ECU and their Stage 1 tune added:
- Gains: +60hp and +70Nm (51lb-ft) torque
- New total output: 620 HP / 750Nm (553lb-ft) torque
The price for the stage 1 tune has been set at 3,499 € (euros). Their Stage 2 tune is already in the works, so expect even higher modified numbers from the F10 M5 soon.
With tuners already achieving 750hp with the S63 motor from the X5M/X6M (such as the
Manhart biturbo M3), expect the same 700+ hp mark from tuned F10 M5 at some point.
VS. FACTORY STOCK F10 M5:
PP-Performance is also the same company that posted the first
independent dyno results (graph below) for the F10 M5. Their F10 M5 (same one used for development of their Stage 1 tune) put down
444 BHP to the wheels on a MAHA LPS 3000 dyno. This translates to an estimated engine power of
573.7 BHP and 721 NM of torque.
If you haven't seen it before, check out their factory stock F10 M5 dyno run below, together with a 0-300kph run.
