What's up guys. Just hitting 76k miles on my 2011 550i. I am pleased with my BMS Stage 1 set at 2.5lbs boost, great power but I feel there's more to be tapped into.
I was wondering how much more power would I be able to squeeze out my stock turbos by upgrading from BMS Stage 1 to a jb4 if I only plan on running 93 octane pump gas? Also. What are some power levels Pure Stage 1 turbos can achieve on only 93 octane and jb4 piggyback? And is it even worth upgrading the turbos at 76k miles? Car runs great, no major problems (other than CCP and Fuel Pump recall) since I bought it 2 years ago (knock on wood). Any input is appreciated. Especially from members who jumped from BMS Stage 1 to jb4. |

Not looking to run meth so I'm not expecting those numbers but I'd be content if I can get roughly 550whp. But I'm curious what numbers I can expect if I only plan on running 93 octane pump gas, coupled with my catless pipes and soon to be jb4. http://www.***********.com/content.p...1-BMW-F10-550i |

Agreed with the DME is untunable. BMS or any piggyback is as good as it gets for that car. If you dropped any aftermarket turbos in there you wouldn't gain much unless the DME was remapped for them. In the near future it might be possible to swap the DME for a 2014+ computer which is highly tunable. Get in touch with MissionPerformance on that. N63TU 2014 DME is programmable up to 550+ whp on stock turbos.

Mike, What are the odds to have you drive to Atlanta and have the best IND mechanic Jay install the Alpina's and Sergei flash tune? Love to have you join the party
