An Extra 117 kW For The BMW X5 M And X6 M

Ever heard of Nowack Motors? Neither had we until we stumbled upon news of their BMW tuning efforts at Autoblog.nl. We’re the first to admit that our comprehension of the Dutch language lacks talent, however we’ve done our best to extract some details for you.

The first tuning package created by the company is focussed on BMW’s X5 and X6 M models. Basically Nowack’s N700 package includes several new parts and an ECU upgrade, which increases power output from the standard twin-turbo, 408 kW 4,4-litre V8 to 525 kW and 845 N.m of torque. Top speed is a guaranteed 330 km/h.

To achieve these monumental figures, Nowack Motors reprogrammed the ECU, optimised the air flow with high performance air filters, modified the exhaust system, improved the pistons and camshafts, modified the cylinder heads and increased the turbo pressure.

To add a touch of bling, Nowack offers optional extras such as 22-inch wheels, a full leather interior and the installation of various in-car entertainment systems.
