X5M / X6M Competition Mods
Anyone seen an mods yet?
Exhaust, Cold Air Intake, Chip, Etc? I am eagerly awaiting them to start hitting the market. I emailed Akrapovic, Dinan and Carbahn. Sounds like 4th quarter or 1st quarter 2021 before stuff will hit. Thanks, Nick |

I dont think any of these would be louder than original thanks to sound level restrictions in EU.
Btw chip is ready always around 6months after the release. |

What about the 23" wheels. Are they aftermarket? If so, are they safe at speeds this car is driven in? Thanks |

RaceChip already have it since May.
I haven't announce anything since couple of local guys that I supposed to use their car for dyno, flaked off. But I have sold a few with good feedback from the consumer.

Dinan is close but based on the video they released in IG the sound isn't any better than the stock comp exhaust. Not to mention the tip design of Dinan exhaust leaves a lot to be desired. Also with the stock tips not only are they staggered, they have a cool side angle cut to them to match the contour of the rear diffuser.
Eisenmann's web site says they are working on it. Supersprint already has a system out but again the tone isn't there. Louder doesn't mean better. I don't want the X5M to sound like a 80's muscle car. 3D Design said they have no plans at the moment for the F95 X5M MSS is working on a lower kit for the car and they had told me late summer or fall Eventuri also mention possibly working on something for Q4 2020 but the email didn't sound like it was set in stone No response from Akrapovic but i'm sure they will have a system. The question is will the sound justify the 9K price tag over the Comp exhaust. I want something that sounds louder but also exotic. Not some raspy old american muscle car. If i wanted that i can just go and hack off the stock exhaust/resonators and weld in some magnaflow mufflers for a few hundred bucks. The F95 really doesn't need improvements. BMW nailed this platform from a aesthetics standpoint. I just want minor little touches to make it my own.
