Who is going to mod their M5?
I’m curious who is going to be modding these. I have a bad history of not leaving cars alone, but this time I think I will.
With a new drivetrain like this, it seems things could get expensive FAST. I think I may just do intake and exhaust. No tunes or piggyback for me this time, but I’m curious to hear what others are thinking. |

I think it would be straight-up retarded to mess with these cars. The cost of fixing out-of-warranty engine failures or PHEV failures will be astronomical. And for what? To go maybe 1/4 of a second faster from 0-60?

I’ve thrown a piggyback on every BMW I’ve owned, and if i got an F90 it wouldn’t be any different. I never care about 0-60 times, but I love the way it knocks the dust off the factory-tuned throttle response. I usually just run a low-ish map fwiw, and typically will run a res delete/x pipe and that’s it.

Not messing with the drivetrain. I didn't on my F95 either. No point having that risk to be .2 secs faster. I rather drive it without any worries at all.

I will be doing drop in air filters and taking out the charcoal filter, carbon Turbo inlets, secondary DPs, and full Exhaust. As soon as the tunes come out, I will be doing a stage 1 Carbahn tune so I don't affect the warranty.
