People making assumptions by looking at the absolute numbers only have no idea what they are talking about.
Yes. This apples to apples dyno run also confirms what I already know. BMW bullshitted about HP and Torque numbers with the n63 the same way they did with the n54 (until they de-tuned the n54).

BMW advertises ~400/450 for the n63 but the real numbers are 30-40 higher. Same reason - so as not to further poach the M version of the same vehicle.

Everything relies on boost. The Dinan tune gets the n63 up around 14psi, 2.5 or so over stock.
