Downpipes and charge pipes should come before a tune in an ideal world. While catless downpipes deliver maximum power and the fastest imaginable turbo spool, you can make 650+ at the crank with an N63TU variant with high-flow cats. Your advice on that front was spot on and for the right reasons. Nice video!

[@8020Media]

A - Agreed! Thanks for the feedback and insight.

[@AmericanGTS]

I have a 2016 750i xdrive. My current mods are catless downpipes, 3” straight pipe, Dinan ignition coils, ARM front facing CAI and charge pipes. I currently have a BM3 93 stage 2 tune. It’s definitely fast for a massive land yacht. The biggest issue with this platform is finding parts for it. For example the ONLY swappable intercoolers costs 3k. There are other options out there but it’s definitely a premium in terms of cost.

[@8020Media]

A - That's typically what happens when a vehicle gets more expensive. But sounds like you've got a great build!

[@JimiJoey]

My favorite upgrades on my 550ix besides downpipes, turbos, meth, ACL rod bearings, custom exhaust and custom tune are the S63 exhaust manifolds.

[@8020Media]

J - Nice! Sounds like you've got a nice build!

[@RayZ__5]

You left me no question to ask Great video 👍🏻🔥

[@8020Media]

Ray - We appreciate the feedback and hope it helps!

[@builtkru5578]

Awesome video, can’t wait to upgrade everything on my 650i!🔥🔥

[@8020Media]

B - Thanks for the feedback! Keep us updated on your build.

[@starky94]

Great vid, though once you mentioned bootmod3 you should also note that it does not support the "original" N63

[@8020Media]

Starky - Thanks for the insight!

[@farfigneugan42]

Does that mean it's compatible with the n63tu? I have the 2017 650i xdrive coupe (not gran coupe)

[@SpotCheckNews]

N63M30 in the Alpina was not included in initial specs. That makes 600-608 whp from Alpina.

[@8020Media]

S - Thanks for the insight.

[@BassFraud]

Lets go! 😮‍💨🔥

[@8020Media]

Bass - Going off of a previous comment, are you wanting an N63 vs S63 vid?

[@BassFraud]

Yes! That would be great to see and also how they compare to their I6 engines such as S58 in reliability in high power ranges . Really appreciate the videos as always 🙏🏽

[@MookaGTS]

Simple and excellent explanation, Great job man i have 2020 M850i Coupe, And I look forward to Tuning it with +700-800whp, i know that's will be hard asf, but i hope i can do it And I have another question, what do you think about best intake for N63? , in terms of sound and flow

[@8020Media]

Mooka - Thanks for the feedback! We have an upgraded intake guide on this engine on our BMW website which I think may be helpful! Keep us posted: bmwtuning.co/bmw-s63-upgraded-performance-intake-guide/

​@@8020Media - Thank u boss!, but this guide for S63, I'm Talking about N63TU3 😄

any certain brands to buy from when it comes to downpipes with high flow cats? ive got a 2016 550i m sport

[@8020Media]

D - Sounds sick!

[@InvestingRealtors]

Where do you get a high flow catted downpipe for under $1,000? I’m seeing more than double that for the cheapest one.

[@8020Media]

I'm not sure I'm aware of any reputable ones. Good catalytic converters are very expensive since they use rare earth metals so they're ridiculously more expensive than catless options.

[@user-jl6ls2cu7q]

14 550I here I have downpipe/straight pipes and stage 1 tune should I do xHp to wake up my transmission?

[@8020Media]

xHP is always a great addition - certainly no harm and only benefit to adding it. Should help it hold up better too

[@jerimiahsmith5941]

So mhd doesn’t offer a tuning software for the n63tu?

[@8020Media]

No - but BM3 does.

[@chillbro8811]

Wouldn't new rod bearings be better option before tuning

[@8020Media]

C - Don't necessarily need to but all depends on your power goals.

[@thetruejay20]

Any companies make a kit with all these mods in one package?

[@8020Media]

Jay - Not to our knowledge.

[@sagethegodvk]

You can get the intake and downpipes together from ARM but that’s about it

[@SMACKiNHiGH]

650i N63TU ?

[@8020Media]

S - What about it?

[@EvanJH02]

Tell me you couldn’t come up with your own name without telling me.

[@8020Media]

Not quite sure what you mean by this. Care to elaborate?

[@cybersyber3602]

Yeah u can get a n63 to 650 hp but for how long hahaha i love my n63 but the damm thing costs so much time and money hahaha

[@8020Media]

C - It's possible. 650 is aggressive.

N63T3 700whp easy

[@8020Media]

P - We like to be modest with these mod guides to protect reliability. But yes, is possible.

[@ronnierabell1]

E85...... Yeah you lost all credibility just by suggesting that e85 makes more power

[@8020Media]

I think you might be confusing E85 with 85 octane. E85 is 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. Ethanol has an octane rating of 100+, burns much cooler than gasoline, and has a lower stoichiometric ratio. That means E85 is incredibly knock resistant and allows you to safely advance ignition timing and run higher boost. Depending on the mods and setup, full E85 can show power gains of 50-100+whp on the N63 (with the appropriate fueling mods for 100% E85). Looking at a small blend of E85 - like an E30 blend - you can still see power gains of 20+whp on the stock turbos without any fuel system upgrades.

[@justinheiden7998]

You don’t know much about engine, compression, and boost do you? Lmao

[@5hunnidCG]

I heard E85 takes longer to combust then regular gasoline🤷🏾‍♂️
