530i B48 tine

Just wondering if anyone has had their 530i retuned on a dyno for extra power.
Something like this:

How has the engine handled the extra power and torque?
Saw a you tube clip on one in Europe. Thing was really moving.

Autoteknik do a pre programmed tune with warranty.
Saw a you tube post where a 2017 530i retuned smashed out 250kmh

Same tune as BSR uses in Sweden
See below
This is tested thoroughly and is 'safe' enough for them to give 4 years engine and gearbox warranty (max 4 years old car)


My brother bought this tired BMW 120i 2019, tune gave him 286hp. Brilliant

No issues, just a smelly clutch after some youthful driving.
The 125 may have a stronger clutch but the engine should be the same.

Yup!

Tuned mine with a custom tune and a burble map, installed a decatted downpipe too.

310 HP / 470 NM - the car is finally fun. I'm not considering a non-resonated mid-pipe but I worry the sound will be too raspy.

In any case, go for it.

Hi,

I have custom stage 1 (520i) - 320hp and 461nm. Engine code B48B20B

Car was measured before and after stage1.
Been running for about 5k km no issues so far, read posts about people running stage1 for over 50k km no issues.

Only mod I have is an K&N air filter. Car is so different and so fun.
