Tuning guide for the BMW 6-Series
6-Series tuning tips from the car tuning guide, we take a look at the best power mods for the 6-Series in our latest guide.
Available in standard form with power of upto 501bhp (depending on the year), so this goes to show the tuning potential of the 6-Series. From this you can increase the power from anywhere between 551.1bhp to 851.7bhp but this depends on how deep your pockets are and how much fairy dust you want to use! You will almost certainly need to look at turbo or supercharger mods to get near that maximum power figure and your engines internals would need to be a fair bit stronger!
The more powerful 6-Series Coupes provide a suitable donor engine for the lower powered models in the range. The already BHP endowed range of 6-Seriess reward tuners with a satisfying power gain. The most frequent modification we see on the 6-Series include sports exhausts, air intakes or induction kits and a fuel pressure boost valve.
A fast road cam will make quite a difference to the peak power of your 6-Series. Turn your attention next to the 6-Seriess engine head. With a good gas flowed ported engine you will see much better mid and peak range power.
The most powerful 6-Series Coupe in our database offers 501 bhp. From this you can increase the power from anywhere between 551.1 bhp to 851.7bhp with mods we have outlined above.
The forced induction 6-Seriess are around with some impressive Turbo and supercharger conversions being done. These give impressive power gains over standard but require a lot of effort to get working properly. If you have a turbo or supercharger get the intercooler uprated for even more power. The most powerful 6-Series has a healthy 501 bhp. In a competition setting you may well, with some forced induction, reboring and other major work see power figures between 651.3 bhp to 951.9bhp with mods we have outlined above.)
