Hey… did you know that tuning isn’t only about making cars more obnoxious and louder? It’s actually mostly about improving performance, be it power and torque or fuel efficiency. All to gain full confidence when accelerating, overtaking or merging onto a highway, as well as to save fuel under regular driving conditions.

Yep, you read that correctly: by having your BMW engine tuned, you can make it less thirsty. Not only that, with a proper tune, you are also looking at potential increases in reliability.

But how do you go about ? Read on to find out the most important aspects of it and see which bimmer engines are good performance improvement candidates.

What Makes a BMW Engine Good for a Tune Up?

There are only a handful of “ingredients” that determine whether or not an engine is right for tuning. That being said, each of them is very important, so if you are considering a BMW tune, take a look at the list below.

  1. Aspiration type – turbocharged engines are much more tuneable than naturally aspirated ones, because there are more parameters that can be controlled to affect the performance.
  2. Design durability – what you want from a good tuning platform is plenty of OEM reliability. The tune itself will help improve the longevity, but the more robust an engine is from the factory, the more safety margins you’ll have.
  3. Engine condition – for tuning, a BMW engine has to be well maintained, according to a regular checkup schedule, along with timely oil and filter changes, and spark plug inspections.

Based on those three aspects, it’s easier to specify which power plants are better suited for tuning than others. So, what are they?

BMW Engines Perfect for Tuning

In the world of various BMW performance upgrades, there are a couple of designs that are definitely tune-worthy. They are characterized by respectable durability margins and reasonable factory power output. Additionally, they are relatively well thought out, at least in most cases.

Let’s dive deeper into the specifics of the abovementioned engines.

BMW B58 Engine Specs and Reliability

BMW B58 ENGINE

The largest of the Bavarians’ modular power plant family, the BMW B58 engine is their latest representative of the inline-six breed introduced in 2015. Depending on the variant and application, it pumps out 322–382 HP and 450–500 Nm of torque. It has forged aluminum piston rods and crankshaft, as well as a closed deck block.

This means the design is very robust from the get-go and it can handle power gains well. It also greatly aids the reliability of the BMW B58 engine, giving it a long-lasting potential, which can be improved even more with appropriate BMW B58 tune… But more on that later.

The BMW B58 engine is used on almost all current production 40i bimmers, including:

  • BMW 340i (F30/F31/F34)
  • BMW 440i (F32/F33/F36)
  • BMW M240i (F22/F23)
  • BMW 540i (G30/G31)
  • BMW M340i (G20/G21)
  • BMW M440i (G22)
  • BMW M240i (G42)

BMW B48 Engine Specs and Reliability

BMW B46 & B48 ENGINE

Another representative of the modular family, the comes in the shape of a more compact four-banger. The Bavarians managed to squeeze out 154–255 HP and 250–400 Nm of torque from it. Thanks to the modularity of the designs, the very same forged piston rods that go into the B58 are also used in B48. In addition, similarly to its bigger brother, the inline-four also has a closed deck aluminum engine block.

Although the B engines are all relatively new, their hefty internal components bode really well for their base longevity. They also make for a solid tuning platform.

In what cars can you find the BMW B48 engine?

  • BMW 2 Series, 3 Series, 4 Series, and 5 Series 20i, 30i or 30e models after 2014
  • MINI Cooper S (F56)
  • Toyota Supra (J29)

BMW B46 Engine Specs and Reliability

Despite the BMW B46 engine being almost identical to the B48, it’s still worth explaining the different numbering. After all, you might’ve already come across this designation. BMW B46 is basically a version of B48 that complies with the American SULEV (Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle) requirements. The changes include distinct air intake, sensors, catalytic converters, and factory tune adjusted to those parts.

From the perspective of BMW ECU tuning or reliability, there are no significant differences between the two. The B46 was installed basically in the same models as B48, only destined for the US market.

BMW B38 Engine Specs and Reliability

BMW B38 ENGINE

The smallest and the first engine of the modular B family, this inline-three was introduced in 2013 along with the BMW i8 hybrid. The two versions it comes in (1.2 and 1.5 L) are available with outputs of 74–228 hp and 150–320 NM of torque.

Although it might seem like a lot of horses out of such a tiny engine, thanks to its durable construction, you still have some room for extra power gains. But, most importantly, engine tuning can help you take some load off of it.

As the lowest-displacement member of the family, B38 engine was meant for the lower trims of BMWs and the budget cars like:

  • F20/F21 BMW 118i (2015–2019)
  • F30/F31 BMW 318i LCI (2015–2019)
  • F40 BMW 118i (2019–present)
  • F44 BMW 218i Gran Coupé (2019–present)
  • F22/F23 BMW 218i (2015–present)
  • F45/F46 BMW 218i Active Tourer/Gran Tourer (2014–present)

BMW N54 Engine Specs and Reliability

BMW N54 ENGINE

Introduced in 2006, the BMW N54 was the Bavarians’ first turbocharged gasoline engine. It took advantage of two turbos to produce 302–335 hp and 400–450 Nm of torque. Similarly to the later B58 engine, it used forged internal components (piston rods and crankshaft), but its engine block was of open deck design.

The BMW N54 engine is able to handle increased boost pressures really well and has a lot of potential for longevity improvements with ECU tuning. Below you’ll find a short list of models that were powered by this power plant:

  • BMW 335i (E90/E91/E92/E93)
  • BMW 535i (E60/E61)
  • BMW 135i (E82/E88)
  • BMW X6 xDrive35i (E71)
  • BMW Z4 sDrive35i (E89)
  • BMW 740i (F01)
  • BMW 335is (E92/E93)
  • BMW 1 Series M Coupe (E82)
  • BMW Z4 sDrive35is (E89)

BMW N55 Engine Specs and Reliability

BMW N55 ENGINE

An evolution of the previous design, the BMW N55 engine was produced from 2009 and gradually replaced the N54 in many applications. It was rated at 302–365 hp and 400–465 Nm of torque, depending on the version. Instead of two turbos, BMW used only one twin-scroll turbocharger, which made the motor lighter than the N54.

Similarly to its predecessor, the BMW N55 engine is quite strong and tolerates power increases well. This means that along with taking a few years off of it, with tuning you’ll be able to gain some extra “juice,” to help you overtake other cars swiftly.

  • BMW 535i (F10/F11/F07)
  • BMW 335i (E90/E91/E92/E93)
  • BMW 135i (E82/E88)
  • BMW X3 xDrive35i (F25)
  • BMW 335i (E70)
  • BMW 335i (F30/F31)
  • BMW X6 xDrive 35i (E71)
  • BMW X1 xDrive35i (E84)
  • BMW 435i (F32/F33/F36)

BMW N20 Engine Specs and Reliability

If you are into Bavarian engines, you might think that the BMW N20 isn’t really suitable for tuning. Although it had its share of problems right after its inception, they have mostly been solved. Moreover, one of the issues that troubled this design was related to high intake air temperatures it experienced. Which is something that can be easily remedied by a proper ECU tune that will lower how hot the engine is running overall.

Introduced in 2011, this turbo inline-four was a replacement for a naturally aspirated straight-six N53 engine. It came in two displacement versions (1.6 and 2.0 L) and produced 168–241 hp and 250–350 Nm of torque.

As a predecessor of the B48, it was installed in a similar range of cars (with the exception of 30i BMW models) until it was replaced by the latter after 2017. Examples of N20-powered vehicles include:

  • BMW 220i/228i (F22)
  • BMW 320i/328i (F30) 
  • BMW 320i/328i GT (F34)      
  • BMW 420i/428i (F32) 
  • BMW 520i/520Li/525Li/528i (F10)

BMW Engines Good for Tuning – Honorable Mentions

Apart from the power plants described up to this point, there are also other BMW engines that are really well-suited for ECU tuning. They are at the bottom of the list not because of their small potential, but due to the fact that they already are extremely powerful in their stock form.

However, if you wanted to, their durable internal components offer great safety reserves for additional power gains. So, which of these designs are a perfect match for engine tuning?

  • BMW S55 – a performance version of the N55 introduced in the BMW M3 (F80), with different variants producing 275–493 hp and up to 600 Nm of torque. Manufactured from 2014 to 2021.
  • BMW S63 – the strongest engine currently offered in the Bavarian lineup, this twin-turbo 4.4 L V8 powers the top-of-the-line M cars, like BMW M5 (F90) and M8 (F91/92/93), as well as their Competition variants. Produced from 2009, this power plant makes up to 635 hp and 750 Nm of torque.
  • BMW S58 – based on the B58 but heavily revised, this engine debuted in BMW X3 M (F97) and X4 M (F98) in 2019. Currently still in production and used on models like the latest BMW M3 (G80), it pumps out 453–503 hp and 550–650 Nm of torque.

How to Tune a BMW Engine Safely?

BMW ECU CHANGING PARAMETERS USING A NOTEBOOK

There are many variables that have to be taken into account when tuning an engine. If you were to try changing any parameters within your BMW’s ECU, you would be at risk of damaging or even destroying the engine. Because of this, a remote tuning service like is your best bet.

Awaken Performance by BimmerTech

During an online coding session, their technician does everything for you: they introduce necessary ECU changes and make your engine work at a lower operating temperature. As a result, it also drinks less gasoline (if you don’t change your driving style), and delivers power more smoothly. All while increasing the longevity of your car.

How to Take Care of a BMW Engine after Tuning?

After you’ve decided to give BMW ECU tuning a go, just don’t neglect the maintenance of your car. Use the best quality fuels (octane rating higher than 93 in US and at least 98 in Europe) and motor oils, and regularly inspect everything. And, most importantly, enjoy your car as if it was brand new, again!

Drag races usually offer us a fun way to test out different models and check out if the performance figures on papers match those on the tarmac. But there are drag races that involve more than just a figure comparison – they give us a reality check, especially if they put head-to-head two entirely different cars, in terms of chassis, body style and performance under the hood.

I mean, why would you put a small and apparently a fragile BMW 1M next to a massive BMW X6 M50d in a drag race? However, you know what they say: size does not always matter…and the video below might prove that right.

Even with the visible differences between the two of them, in terms of performance figures we are looking at a good report. However, even if the X6 looks and feels more powerful, the 1M has the advantage of being smaller and lighter.

To start with the BMW 1M Coupe, the model comes with a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine, with 335 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque, enough to deliver a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds.

On the other hand, the BMW X6 M50d packs a 3.0-liter tri-turbocharged engine, with 375 horsepower and 740 Nm of torque. Even if it comes with higher power, the model is a tad slower, with around 0.3 seconds, due to its massive body styling.

Now that we know a little about both cars, push the play button to see for yourself if the BMW 1M Coupe manages to beat up the massive X6 M50d on a straight line race!

G-Power is one of the world`s leading tuning companies in providing apart power kits, this time the tuner turning its attention to this exclusive BMW X6 M50d, the model being packed with a kick-ass power kit.

From the start, the BMW X6 M50d is coming with sheer performance under the hood, thanks to its three turbochargers. But the aftermarket specialists from G-Power division has come up with their own interpretation of power.

They have thus installed two remapped ECU modules, the G-Power D-Tronik 5 V1 and the D-Tronik 2 VI, the first one being placed between the stock ECU and engine, providing the car with a fuel efficiency when the system remains inactive under normal acceleration.

We are dealing here with an additional 74 horsepower and 130 Nm of torque, for a total of 455 horsepower and impressive 870 Nm of torque. No performance figures were given at this time, but the result might be blowing one.

Apart the power kit, this BMW X6 M50d is also coming with a cool set of ultra-light HURRICANE RR forged wheels, measuring 11.0×23-inch, front and rear, all wrapped with the 305/25 ZR23 rubbers. The wheels can come with a choice of finishes, like the Jet Black, Stardust Silver or Gun Metal Grey, which provide the X6 with an exquisite look and stance.

There is a voice inside BMW America, saying that the Germans should adapt better to the market needs. This mean more crossovers and less cars.

His name is Damon Shelly and he’s the chairman of the BMW National Dealer Forum. Interviewed by Automotive News, he stated that BMW forces the sales of passenger cars, instead of accepting the natural trend on the market. It seems that the balance between the customers needs and the BMW offer isn’t close of what it should be. For instance, the sales of the BMW light-trucks totalized 33 percent of the vehicles sold, while a more realistic number would be around 40 percent.

To respond the increasing demand for the X models, BMW boosted the production in the Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, managing to produce last year over 400.000 vehicles. There will also be some newcomers in the X family: rumors of a small coupe crossover and certain facts about the mighty X7 will probably increase the production even more in the following years.

It is expected that the new X7 to be a best-seller in the American market and it was confirmed that a luxury version, with only four seats will be available at a price of just over 100.000 USD. It will probably feature a hybrid powertrain, together with other twin turbo gasoline engines for the American market and at least a diesel engine for the European customers. One thing is sure: BMW is experiencing a great period, and they have to handle it carefully to keep the clients happy.

This extremely modified BMW X6 has made quite a buzz all over the world, being considered one of the ugliest ever customized model from BMW. But even so, it managed to attract everybody`s attention.

The only problem with this BMW X6 AG Alligator is the high price it comes with: Lithuanian based AG Excalibur tuner is asking “just” $100.000.

I am not sure how to describe it, weird, the ugliest custom BMW M6 ever built or the most beautiful one, perhaps for some it is. No matter how you look at it, it does standout from the crowd with the two large mesh air intakes comprised in the revised front fascia.

The wide body kit measures 100 mm on the front axle and 150 mm on the rear, adding the brand-new front grille with longer hood. At the rear, the AG Alligator received the new exhaust system with two central tailpipes, which complements the updated rear bumper. The entire body kit is highlighted by the massive 26-inch alloy wheels.

The cabin also received the same insane treatment, like the “Italian alligator embossed leather” on the dash, steering wheel, center console or upper sections of the door panels. The center console was also completely restyled, the circular vents and the controls now being positioned horizontally on the center stack.

If you are interested in buying the car, you can find it at Autoplius in Lithuania, otherwise, just forget you have ever got acquainted with such a Darth Vader-like vehicle on wheels!

The 2015 Essen Motor Show, which is that show mostly dedicated for custom vehicles, is currently the host of the most outstanding models from the tuning segment.

The prestigious German based tuner AC Schnitzer has brought along its interesting BMW models, amongst which proudly sits the high-end BMW X6 with the Falcon upgrade program.

From a visual standpoint, the BMW X6 Falcon is standing out from the crowd with an aggressive and more aerodynamic body style, consisting of ten elements, like the wide front and carbon rear wings, custom front skirts, rear diffuser and skirt insert, along with the Falcon emblems, revised bonnet vents and so on.

The overall body style is complemented by the 22-inch classic double spoke AC1 rims, all finished in matte anthracite and BiColor.

In case you want more standout features, then you can also choose the AC Schnizter revised suspension with the new lowering springs, which lowers the SAV`s ride height by 15 to 20mm. Inside, the X6 Falcon received the aluminum pedals, bespoke floor mats, and a few more.

But the most important upgrades were brought under the hood, the BMW X6 Falcon receiving several power boosts, for both its gasoline and diesel engine lineup.

The power boost for the gasoline versions starts with the 35i, with 360 horsepower, 50i with 450 horsepower and the X6 M with 650 horsepower. On the diesel`s side, the 30d is now packing 309 horsepower while the 40d is coming with 360 horsepower.

Lumma Design tuner has returned with its latest released BMW X6 CLR R body kit, the model now looking more menacing and more aggressive than ever.

The BMW X6 model is already looking bulk, wide and extremely rugged at the exterior and some body parts might make it the ultimate German fighting machine. But Lumma Design has its way of not spoiling the overall personality.

The CLR R kit is showing this white BMW X4 with new bumpers at the front and rear, LED lights, front spoiler lip and diffuser, customized tailpipe, fender flares, side skirts as well as a new rear tailgate spoiler. The Lumma badge is also present on the body style.

Inside, the aftermarket specialists from Lumma Design have also fitted the cabin with some carbon fiber upgrades, high-end leather, or Alcantara. Under the hood, the X6 has not received any power boost.

The BMW X6 in the xDrive50i, comes fully loaded with a 4.4-liter V8 turbo engine, outputting 500 horsepower and a good 650 Nm of torque.

Finally, the top of the range BMW X6 M50d is powered by a tri-turbo diesel burner, which juices up 375 horsepower and 740 Nm of torque, hooked to an 8-speed automatic transmission and coming with an all-wheel drive layout.

G-Power is one of the world`s leading tuning companies in providing apart power kits, this time the tuner turning its attention to this exclusive BMW X6 M50d, the model receiving an impressive power bost.

From the start, the BMW X6 is coming with sheer performance under the hood, thanks to its three turbochargers. But the aftermarket specialists from G-Power division have come up with their own interpretation of power.

They have thus installed two remapped ECU modules, the G-Power D-Tronik 5 V1 and the D-Tronik 2 VI, the first one being placed between the stock ECU and engine, providing the car with a fuel efficiency when the system remains inactive under normal acceleration.

We are dealing here with an additional 74 horsepower and 130 Nm of torque, for a total of 455 horsepower and impressive 870 Nm of torque. No performance figures were given at this time, but the result might be mind-blowing.

Apart the power kit, this BMW X6 M50d is also coming with a cool set of ultra-light HURRICANE RR forged wheels, measuring 11.0×23-inch, front and rear, all wrapped with the 305/25 ZR23 rubbers. The wheels can come with a choice of interesting finishes, like the Jet Black, Stardust Silver or Gun Metal Grey, which provide the X6 with an exquisite look and stance.

The BMW X6 xDrive30d SAV in its previous generation has been the subject of a wheel wrap, the entire work being carreid out by the guys from the ADV.1 Wheels tuning company, which is, in my opinion one of the most skilled aftermarket shops in the wheeling industry.

This BMW X6 xDrive30d is already coming with an aggressive design, but a set of ADV005 monoblock MV2 CS wheels would make it even more standout. The wheels are sized 20×10 in all front corners and give the famous German SAV a stronger personality.
