M550i BMS Stage 1 goes 1/4 Mile in 11.7 Sec *Update again* Hit 11.38

Just bought the dragy vbox. Tested it a couple of times, got wheelspin every single time as its -15c here and on 245/19 winter tires.

Stock everything, just the stage 1 tune and 91 Oct.



0-60 clocked in at 3.78 Seconds in this run, Sport Plus + Traction off + LC, after that LC just wouldn't engage properly, as in the car barely had power in first when I tried engaging LC. DSC off fixed that but then wheel spin got worse. I guess i'll have to wait till I get summer tires back on.

I believe the 210km/h Speed limiter might have affected the trap speed as it starts kicking in after 200km/h, regardless I'm very impressed with the time. This puts me right next to stock Rs7 and stock f10 m5

Cheers!

** UPDATE **

Hit 11.57 @ 119 with a 0-60 in 3.47

I thought M550i 0-60 is already faster than F10 M5.

In everyday conditions, 8/10 times i'll beat them stock. Already beat an M6 4/5 times from standstill.

As far as my time is concerned I kept getting wheelspin, it's just too damn cold here.... In the second try i'm assuming the ECU tried adjusting the engine power based on the wheel spin and the power just wasn't there. Had to turn off DSC which caused even worse wheel spin. In ideal condition with summer tires I should clock in around 3.5-3.6~ with just this stage 1 piggy back.

are you talking about with the tune or without? I thought BMW was claiming the G30 M550i the quickest 5 series (beating F10 M5) a few months ago.

Without the tune, I beat an M6 4/5 times from 0-200km/h

I hit the limiter at 210 which actually starts slowing you down after 200, and he crossed me. His M6 has trapped 125-126 stock, so it's definitely a faster car from a roll which was evident in a roll race we did.

Hit 11.57. I knew the she had it in her, just had to get a better launch. I'm pretty sure it can do even better but i'll have to wait till spring time for ps4s's to go back.

Hey thanks for the info. I'm a bit confused though, you said you hit the limiter at 210 kmh which would be only 130 mph.... I though the m550 was governed at 155mph?

Long story. In the first 3-4 production months for the M550i, Germany was sending out M550's without the 668 rims, due to shortage. The other 19's that it was coming with from factory had all season tires so they restricted the top speed to 210km/h. 668's with PS4S's Came separately later on.

Yeah non run flats are definitely the way to go. No issues with the BMS Stage 1 so far.

Trust me my friend has an M6 which i did bootmod3 stage 2 on yesterday. He's a full second behind the m550i to quarter mile. Hell my bm3 stage 2 335i xdrive dusted him from 40km/h to 180. Having more power means nothing if you can't put it down.

He couldn't believe the amound of G's my M550i Pulled from dead stop.

100% agree most times stock Ms beat the tuned ones at drag strip lol. the m5/6 needed awd desperately. only time i have proper traction off the line is when my tires are new and tires are warm otherwise just spins. as a side note friends mom has a 540i xdrive and he tested it aginst his tuned f80 and they were identical to 100kph lol.... its pathetic from a roll it feels very very slow but from 0 it hooks and goessss.

New personal Best with JB4 on Map 2.

Still no BCM. My 60-100, 60-110 times haven't changed from Stage 1 so I don't think Jb4 has done much. I'll log and see if the boost is any higher
