Alpine White N63TU 550i build

JRSUH85 · 12-27-2022, 02:18 PM

Hey all got a 2016 550i xDrive Alpine White MSport back in Oct 2021 bone stock not even a tint.

As of this post sitting on 36,272 miles

Since then added the following:

Currently running BMS Stage 1
N63intake.com intakes (for the sound mostly)
M5 Comp mufflers

A lot of carbon fiber parts

3.5 Map sensors
Eldor coils
NGK 97506 plugs
95C thermostat
Upgraded oil cooler valve
BMW 409M wheels powder coated dark grey

On hand pending install:
M5 Comp sway bars
E70 X5M front brakes powder coated red

Just ordered Active Autowerkes catted downpipes. Not sure if any others are running AA catted downpipes on a 550i but I will write up a review once installed.

Looking for a custom stage 2 tune after downpipes go in.

Car looks good bro.... Quick question did you go with the front mounted intakes by them? hard to tell by the pics I think I see it but not sure. I was considering pulling the trigger on them. Any noticeable performance from them?

Yeah I picked up a set from n63intakes.com tbh no real power gains and I knew this going in. The sound of the turbo from them is pleasing for sure.
