BMW M5 F90 ECU Tuning Guide — S63 4.4L Twin-Turbo V8 Stage 1, 2 & 3 Power, Mods & GCC Tips (2026)
The BMW M5 F90 is the most potent iteration of BMW's legendary super sedan, powered by the S63B44T4 — a 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing 600 HP in standard trim and 625 HP in Competition spec. With boost levels held conservatively from the factory and a robust bottom-end forged rotating assembly, the S63 in the F90 is one of the most rewarding platforms in the BMW M lineup to tune. Stage 1 ECU calibration alone pushes past 700 HP, while full-build Stage 3 configurations regularly exceed 1,000 HP on pump fuel. This guide breaks down every tuning stage, the hardware each...
BMW M5 F90 Exhaust Upgrade Guide — Titanium Valvetronic vs Straight Pipe | S63TU 4.4L Twin-Turbo V8 | YPG Motorsport
The BMW M5 F90 is one of the most capable super sedans ever built — a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 producing 600 HP in standard form and 617 HP in Competition trim.

If you're looking for the best exhaust upgrade for the F90 M5, this guide covers everything: titanium vs stainless steel, valvetronic vs straight pipe, weight savings, and which system is right for your driving style.

BMW M5 F90 Downpipe Guide — S63 4.4TT Catted vs Catless, Stage 2 Power & Install
The BMW F90 M5 uses the S63B44T4 — a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that produces 591–617 HP from the factory depending on variant. It is one of the most potent sedans ever built, and it has substantial untapped potential locked behind factory exhaust restrictions. The stock catalytic converters downstream of each turbocharger are the primary bottleneck, and replacing them with performance downpipes is the foundation of any serious M5 build. Why the S63 Needs Downpipes The S63 positions its two twin-scroll turbochargers outboard of the cylinder banks in a traditional hot-outside-vee layout. Each turbo feeds exhaust through its own catalytic converter...
