Question for Shiv or Terry re: N63/F10 550i
Do you guys have tunes in development already for the N63 engine in the F10 550i? If so, when can we expect to see them available?

Shiv, can you explain the difference in turbos between the N54 & the N63?

And what about x35d? Have you started working on it? Are you going to start? I sent you an e-mail some days ago...

No plans for the diesel just yet. All these new gasoline turbo engines are keeping up busy.

Frankly, I'm very interested to see what a mature system for the N55 looks like. IMO, that engine could provide phenomenal tuning value. Only need one DP, ICs can't be too different from what's on the market... I could see 400whp out of the N55 for $3,000 (IC, DP, Tune).
The N63 should be beastly Edit: also, the new ZF 8 speed is fairly robust so.... one less bottleneck

Now I just need to decide between i and xi .. I'm not sure 500+rwhp is a good idea without an LSD (though the 5 apparently has BMW's "e-LSD"). |

Don't forget the piezo direct fuel injection. You can accelerate at any time and never have to worry about high levels of fuel consumption.
Shiv, will this affect the way you take approach in tuning? Will you take advantage of this technology?

@Jon335iFL
Considering how early the (single scroll) turbos kick in, I'd imagine that they're pretty small and are thus the limiting factor hence my conservative estimate. @AltecBX The N54 also has direct injection. No change in tuning methods required for the N63 @ruxp the "e-LSD" is crap. It's just a traction control algorithm that applies the brakes to the inside wheel :
