Our F90 M5 gets an Evolve Stage 2 ECU Tune

[@Amaurylopez2004]

The M5 it’s already in supercar territorial.! Can’t wait to see what it can do against them at the drags trip 💪🏼

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Neither can we 😎

[@AmarjitKaur-bm7ve]

My M5 was done y you guys last summer by the previous owner and wow what a difference I drove one at Bmw and was like wow these are fast then when I went out in the one I got tuned by you guys its blew me away for sure !! keep up the amazing work

[@robertolombardi3698]

Amazing power gains from the M5 Imran, really interesting facts from the Dino. The ambient lighting inside looks really cool. I'll be in touch in a few days to discuss the Eventuri intake system for my M2 Competition. Keep up the great content and work.

[@santana9537]

Still come back to view these videos. M5 is THE BEAST!!

[@Flip01]

As always very nice. Any chance you could do a video outlining how you got started in your business and what qualifications you have? I think your viewer's would find it interesting. Cheers 👍

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Maybe we’ll do a Q&A video one day if there’s enough interest

Flip Fantastic idea. I find Imran a very interesting guy. Not to mention his business is most peoples dream business

[@TC-db5fm]

Bro you should do one of those dyno days. Was always intriguing to see what different setups and gains were attained 👌

[@Em_jiggy]

Perfect! All I need is to get an M5 now 💀

[@stubones]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! edit** I'm sure this BMW v8 should be good for over 1000hp with hybrid turbos (Pure Turbos) and applicable mods. If it can out down that power through all four wheels it would be good for 2.3s 0-60 I reckon.

[@rorywheeldon1623]

Wow. I was there when you brought it back from having its RIS done, Now its really moving on to something truly special, awesome!

[@moddedperformancetuning9761]

This new m5 interior is such a much deserved update! I really can't believe it may that much power on a stage one map. Absolutely incredible!

[@EvolveAutomotive]

I would not let the outcome of that be the deciding factor. They will be so close. Drive both. Buy which one you prefer.

[@dtprodrive]

Evolve Automotive been out in both they both have good and bad points very closely matched. Just want to see what cars more tuneable now. From the draggy times it looks like you might have a slight edge

[@fredlachy]

I like modding cars...but a car that's this fast stock:) Madness, in a good way.

[@sheharyarirfan]

So my Stage 2 M550i does stock F90 numbers... not bad

[@shadleybam3140]

That is crazy power well done! Before vmax how would you drive the car. And what fuel would you put in days before. For instance my m3 s65 I would put in good fuel and reset adaptions and then pull thr car hard for 2 days before the race. How long should adaptions take to get maximum timing etc.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

We use Shell V Power unless otherwise stated all the time so it doesn't really need to adapt to anything.

[@ngonzalez919]

Sounds good. Did you disable active sound? Also when you tune the ECU can you remove the speed limiter?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Haven't disabled Active Sound yet. Yes top speed limit removed

[@DaChefBoi]

Geez...you got a sub from me. Lycan...I love it.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Cheers!

[@alpinab14]

very special car and it was coming to the point with these new turbo,d generation engines 4wd was the only way to go , that much power through just the rear wheels becomes tiresome after a while especially in the uk where its nearly always wet , also im just as excited to see the rs3 grow as much as the m5 , rs3 is a great edition to the bmw line up

[@maluku1807]

I really wanna see this m5 f90 against a e63s also with a stage 2 tune

[@EvolveAutomotive]

We hope to make that happen at VMAX!

[@Adam_824]

Love this channel and what you guys bring to the table for bmw’s Hey Imran, do you think you would every look into creating an aftermarket intake manifold for the e92 m3? Or would the market versus r&d involved not be worth it..or I suppose the gains versus lack of not worth it..just curious to get your input

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Eventuri are currently developing a carbon fibre intake plenum, but to be honest BMW really nailed the intake design on these cars, the airbox is one of the best we’ve seen and the plenum is tuned perfectly for the car. Not sure you’d find much performance gain by changing any of its design. Eventuri did a few optimisations to gain around 9bhp with their intake, currently testing the plenum but it’s a much more visual/noise upgrade.

[@Adam_824]

Evolve Automotive thx for the reply! that’s kind of what I figured with the oem one but to be honest i’d by the eventuri plenum in a heartbeat and am excited they are in the mist of development with it..any estimated release dates for it?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Just in testing at the moment for durability. Should be ready for release next month

[@Adam_824]

Evolve Automotive pure awesomeness!

[@ThePoonTangy]

[@markrescober]

I own 2018 F90 M5 in the USA. How do I get stage 1 tune? Will that work for USA spec M5s? Thanks for your attention. BTW, nice build so far!!

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Please email [e-mail] and we can get you set up. Glad you are liking the build so far. More to come 😁

[@tilidie5272]

is mapping the same thing as tuning? someone said i could map my diesel audi a4 and it will be as quick as an s4? i doubt it but can ask for nothing.. cheers. your beamers beautiful btw

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Remapping is a form of tuning yes. Would have to see what the gains were from your car, and I imagine that would be in comparison to a stock S4, but it’s not impossible.

[@Brozay401]

Great video Imran but can you strat telling us the wheel hp and not just the engines output as its the whp that really matters👍🏾

[@EvolveAutomotive]

In Europe we use crank figures. The delta is what's important anyway. Dynojet read so high compared to our dyno rwp would just look too low to US guys

[@Brozay401]

@@EvolveAutomotive im not saying dont include hp output im saying on top of that include bhp output. I watch american vids aswell though im from u.k. and they often mention bhp...like drag times for example or the smoking tire. Our market may not be as big as the u.s. one but we still love your vids and still want to relate it to our terminology👍🏾

[@EvolveAutomotive]

@@Brozay401 thats why we give acceleration figures too. Much more relevant than any Dyno figure that can be manipulated.

[@ranmas2004]

How does the stock trans handle that power? Slippage???

[@EvolveAutomotive]

No slippage. Check our race videos to see how times we have launched this car from 0-200mph.

[@DrQQ-th3ix]

Flywheel power : 743.2 HP. How much do you expect for wheel power?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

I'll take it to a Dyno Jet to get a US friendly wheel figure

[@stubones]

It should be roughly 615-620whp (which does seem on the low side) but we'll wait for for Imran to confirm it :) The calulator I used based the figure on: AWD and modern automatic transmission.

[@DaleSteel]

I'd be interested in buying this m5 is If your getting shut end of this year (with all the spec still on though)?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

No plans to sell this for at least 2 years. We are still developing parts for it

[@mrwy5330]

How good is the 4wd (xdrive) system compared to like audi or Mercedes?

[@limeypride]

My last two (prior to my M5C) were a 2018 E63S and a 2017 RS7 Perf. I loved the traction on those cars and the same is true of the F90's system. Launch-wise, the RS7 felt a little stronger but the numbers don't back that up. Short story: it feels great; it pushes the power to the rear most of the time and it feels good as a result; RWD-only is amusing but nothing I'll use on regular basis.

[@unrealcars1564]

Ok know I’m late but a stage 2 beat a Lamborghini aventador svj lp770-4

[@akshatshahi718]

10.2 on a quarter mile is mind blowing one of the better tunes I've seen

[@victoramogu3708]

Just saw a drag race on car wow. This tune is ridiculous 😲

[@limeypride]

Are you doing anything special to get the car to "happy" on the dyno? I used dyno mode, RWD-only mode and even tried it in 4WD but struggled to get the car to NOT freak out.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

We can run it with or without Dyno mode. Just have to make sure the wheels are in the correct place so it doesn't keep shifting power between back and front

[@limeypride]

Evolve Automotive Thanks. Can you elaborate as to what the "right place" is?

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Adjusting the bed length so that it sits evenly on the front and rear rollers.

[@limeypride]

@@EvolveAutomotive Ah, I understand. You're trying to eliminate the car's perception of traction loss. In my scenario, I think that's irrelevant given we're using an independent hub dyno as opposed to rollers. Thanks for the feedback!

[@EvolveAutomotive]

If not using a linked dyno a lot of it will come down to how well the software can manage the front/rear rollers to match the speeds.

[@Plane_For_All_To_See]

A quick question, I thought the M5 is supposed to have the M sport stitching seatbelts as standard? Is it an option in the UK? Cheers

[@chrisg4rr377]

Normally in the Comp model in the UK

Hi would you recommend a e60 as that's all I have in my budget?

[@chrisg4rr377]

If your budget can only just afford a car be aware that any repairs of maintenance might cost alot too. Even tyres might cost more than you expect

[@keeptraining3]

g4rr377 Thanks mate. Doing my sums and think probably best to buy an F10 on finance which will be cheaper to maintain.

So stock Competition around 650+?

Have to get one in to dyno and see.

[@bb8228]

Are you going to improve that map? Not exactly a smooth graph.

Our dyno does not have graph smoothing. If we took it to a dynojet it would look smooth and it drives just like stock buy with more power.

Evolve I have a question. There is this theory roaming around the internet regarding e9x m3. That if you change the exhaust on it, to an aftermarket one, the backpreassure changes and its one of the reasons why some engines are gone in short time or very problematic. What is Your opinion?

@@EvolveAutomotive its one of those theories that bmw designed everything perfect and dont change it/upgrade it.
