Question about F10 M5

Well with the long awaited release of the new F10 BMW M5 and details of the engine, do any of the more automotive savvy people know whether this platform will be very easy to modify to high numbers.

It's very close to the X6/X5 M's, and there are few options to get over 50hp from chipping alone, so yes, I'd imagine a good bit of power is still available in the F10 M5.

I hope so, because what it has for stock HP is an embarrassment.

A lot of humour. I like that.
