740WHP as opposed to 700WHP with a tune. Kind of disappointing, but still early.
Can anyone tell me what brand, size and model numbers are stock on the M5. I've been googling for two days.
Go to Pure Turbos and select F90 and they'll come up. Only make stage 2

Really? There is f80s running full e85. My f80 was on 100% e85. Love it. Right now I've been running e40. Slowly pushing the limits

I hear ya man, I was assuming we were talking about M5s that's why I said I really don't know any M5s out there who are running full E85.

I get you. I'm running e40 right now. Hopefully being able to push it some more. I know it was a problem with the f10 platform but we will see

I think eventually I'd love to see the F90 platform get to the point where it produces numbers similar to running mix e85 and even race fuel. I think it's capable of doing that just a matter of who's going to experiment with it first lol.

I've gone as high as 5.5 gals on a full tank...pulls like a beast.

tried 6 gals once, and I got some sputtering.

anybody on the forums running hybrid turbos? my f10 m5 s63 motor blew up from just a jb4 and some aggressive driving. not sure if these f90 motors do the same thing or not and if that would make turbos "not worth it"
