Old X5 .....184 Bhp and 410Nm Torque
New X5.....218Bhp and 500Nm Torque

For obvious reasons BMW wont tells us what they done to increase Power on the new X5 3.0D but what we do know from a specification point of view is that they increased the engine C.C. from just over 2900 to almost 3000.
The other mods we measured are 200Grms more Boost pressure and we assume that the ECU has been reprogrammed with different Fuel and Injection parametres.


Pegbox,did you go to see ALLARD?Any news?
