F10 550i drivetrain upgrade recommendations

550l · 09-06-2020, 06:21 AM

I have a 2016 550xi being built to 700 hp crank. Plan on using xDelete to make it RWD. The drivetrain obviously won't be able to handle it. What recommendations for aftermarket differential, transfer case, driveshaft, etc. can you guys give me?

Might want to look at the Alpina B6 parts since that was rated at 600hp from factory. Might already have the right parts to handle the power there.

Also reach out to Sergey (n63intake) since hes probably been around there in terms of power (he had 600hp at wheels with his tune).
