▀▄ eas | Alpine White F86 X6M gets the works - ESS, RKP, Vorsteiner, Akrapovic

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
For those of you who need a full size SUV that can handle rain, snow, off roading and has 567hp the X5M/X6M stands alone.

the owner is no stranger to EAS, as we've previously commissioned two previous build with him: one most notably being a 600whp ESS Supercharged M3 convertible. With that in mind, we wanted to bring his X6M to the same level, while still being comfortable enough to drive around town daily. Vehicle needs to command respect, not beg for attention.

Starting with the RKP full carbon fiber kit and the iND Gloss Tri-Colored Grilles/Fender Gills and Gloss X6M badge to match. Power was increased to 700+ hp with an ESS flash tune. To get the car sounding right Evolution Racewerks 4" catless downpipes were mated to a Akrapovic's newest Evolution Tittanium Exhaust system. The stock 20'" wheels were removed in favor of Vorsteiner's newest 22" VFE 404's from their Forged/Bespoke line, custom finished in Brushed Dark Tint.

Last step was to give the X6M just the right stance. A set of springs sourced from AC Schnitzer were just the ticket to give the X6M an aggressive stance. Be on the lookout for this X6M tearing up the streets of SoCal.

Modifications
RKP - Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser
RKP - Carbon Fiber Front Lip Spoiler
3D Design - F86 X6M Carbon Fiber Trunk Spoiler
RKP - Carbon Fiber Bumper Inserts
AC Schnitzer - Lowering Spring Set
Akrapovic - Evolution Titanium Exhaust System
iND - Painted Front Reflector Set
iND - M Performance Front Grille Set
iND - M Performance Side Grille Set
iND - Painted Trunk Emblem
ESS - S63TÜ Stage 1 Performance ECU Software
Evolution Racewerks - Competition Series Catless Downpipe X5M/X6M S63TU - 4" Catless Downpipes
22" Vorsteiner VFE-404 Bespoke forged wheels - Brushed Dark Tint Finish - w/ Pirelli Scorpion Tires
EAS Coding "Works" Package



























































Enjoy!

Nope the ESS flash tune takes care of the CEL.

Looks great, but I don't think "off road" is one of the marketable qualities of any car with 22" wheels.

Very nice. Not overly done like so many and the rear hatch lip really completes the whole look for the better

X6M has been returned to the owner, I'll see if he can drop by for a followup and we'll get some video/audio.

I love the stock 21" wheels on mine, though I like what you picked too!
That exhaust looks amazing!

I guess we aren't counting the G63 because it's only 563hp not the full 567hp that's required. Haha
