The first thing you notice when looking at this particular BMW X6 M is the changed look of the vehicle. 3D Design has fitted quite a number of parts. Despite having its aspect changed, the added parts seem to integrate flawlessly into the original design. The identity of the vehicle has been kept the same. The modifications help bring out the vehicle’s already existing particularities. The result is a more aggressive and sporty looking vehicle. This BMW X6 M is definitely a vehicle most BMW fans would love to have in their private collection.

This BMW X6 M also sports a set of brand new 23 inch rims courtesy of Manhart. The rims add to the aggressive aspect of the vehicle. The rims are not flashy. They integrate perfectly with the rest of the added improvements, being nicely wrapped in high performance tires. Grip seems to be improved as a direct result of the selected tires. The feel of the car, while not radically different, is improved. The BMW X6 M by 3D Design is definitely a head turner. The addition of an Akrapovic exhaust system could only lead to a better sounding BMW X6 M.

Despite all modifications, the car’s 4.4 liter bi-turbo V8 engine was left untouched. The 567HP produced by the engine were considered enough by the folks at 3D Design for this particular build. If you take in account that the BMW X6 M does 0 to 100km/h in just about 4 seconds you will realize that 3D Design did the right thing when it decided not to tweak or modify the engine.

The interior of the vehicle completes the upgrade in a stylish way. The red leather seats are the centerpiece of the BMW X6 M’s interior. The carbon fiber trim contributes to the sporty look of the interior. There is a great sense of cohesion with this particular build. The interior harmoniously fits the exterior of the car. With this project, the people over at 3D Design proved once more that they are car tuning experts.

Starting with the front lip, continuing with the rear spoiler and ending with the carbon splitter, all these carbon fiber improvements contribute to the car’s improved performance while also giving it a sportier, aggressive look. The car’s GTS look is also the result of the Nardo Gray paintjob. Not long ago Nardo Gray was an exclusive Audi used nuance.

At to this the remarkable performance that seems to be almost on par with the M4’s capabilities and you’ve got yourself a whole new perspective on the 435i.The secret to building an M4 crusher from a BMW 435i is quite complex. It takes more than raw performance to turn an already classy car into something that would literally turn everyone’s head.

Alpina has accommodated a second turbo on the BMW 435i’s N55 engine, simultaneously adding a bunch of other upgrades. This raises the performance of the engine from 300hp to an unimaginable 434hp. Suspension has also been upgraded with a softer and more responsive type, this being another improvement over the equally capable M4. The Akrapovic exhaust system only adds to the performance factor and wraps up the package in a neat performance filled vehicle.

Alpina doesn’t seem to be interested just in the performance aspect of the 435i. As in the case of other cars upgraded by Alpina, the tuner is interested in creating a comfortable and powerful ride without any compromise. On the outside the Alpina logos and the visual modifications undoubtedly attract attention. The car’s overall sleek aspect is completed by a set of 20 inch rims. The lid spoiler gives the car a sportier look and adds to the overall aggressive aspect of the car.

The interior of the BMW 435i is probably the most important element when it comes to Alpina’s statement of no compromise. Sporting leather with a classy wood trim, the interior of the BMW 435i is making this exact statement. With the Alpina version of the BMW 435i there literally is no compromise. Every aspect of the car seems to fit in well with Alpina’s take on vehicle upgrading.

All in all the BMW 435i is a must have for all BMW enthusiasts. It is itself an icon in the BMW world through Alpina’s unique concept of not accepting any compromise performance or aspect wise. The Alpina B4 S was present at the 2017 Geneva Show amongst other great competitors. Without a doubt the car stood out in a crowd of performance oriented vehicles on account of it offering a bit more than just performance to its owner. It could be said that the Alpina has transformed the 435i into a noteworthy legend.

It is a sort of a joint venture between AC Schnitzer, 3D Design or Akrapovic, all of them adding their contribution to the car`s project.

For instance, AC Schnitzer has added lots of M Performance Parts to the BMW X6 M, equipping the SUV with its own styling bits. We are looking here at bespoke carbon fiber mirrors, black fenders vents, black kidney grilles, black roof finish or side stripes. Finally, the German tuner has also installed the 23-inch AC1 Forged racing alloy wheels, increasing thus the car`s aggressive attitude. 3D Design completes the scenery with a couple of new mods as well.

As you already probably know, a fine exhaust system could not have missed and this is where Akrapovic tuner sets in, fitting the model with its high-performance Evolution exhaust system which normally increases the car`s power and engine soundtrack.

Inside, the cabin is also refreshed with the new leather on the seats, console, lower dashboard, armrest or door panels, which perfectly contrasts the red stitching surrounding the interior.

Speaking about performance, we are not sure if this BMW X6 M has received any power boost, but we surely know how powerful it is in the stock version.

This means that the BMW X6 M features a 4.4-liter V8 BMW TwinPower Turbo with 567 horsepower and 680 Nm of torque, allowing a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.0 seconds.

This time, though, it’s different. It’s a dynamic subject, a comparison, and today it won’t be any winner. At least, I will avoid to say my opinion, mainly because it’s a matter of taste. Anyway, the truth is that the 3 liter turbocharged engine sounds superb through any exhaust.

The verdict will be even more difficult, because of the celebrity of the three brands involved in this comparison. The first one is Akrapovic. I don’t know how exactly what’s the best way to describe this company, but, instead, I’ll say that, traditionally, they manufacture exhausts for motorcycles, and only recently they started working on automobiles. They’re best known for equipping a few teams from Moto GP, superbike and supersport. And, maybe the thing that no one knows, Akrapovic is a Slovenian brand!

Next – the world leader in sport exhausts. Their story is impressive: in 26 years, they managed to be present in 60 countries, starting from only 5 employees. In only three years from the beginning, the company built a production area of 12.000 square meters!

Finally, the last exhaust system comes from the Motorsport division of BMW. Yes, it’s the stock exhaust, and we know it’s an impressive sounding system.

Which one is the greatest, and more interesting – does it worth replacing the original exhaust system with an aftermarket one? You’ll decide!

The post F22 BMW M2: exhaust system comparison appeared first on BMW Car Tuning BLOG - BMW Car Modifications and Customization.

It sounds absolutely mind blowing, with all those crackles and bangs, and it looks as aggressive as any other Akrapovic exhaust. But there aren’t the only benefits of the exhaust system. It’s also lighter than the original system, managing to get rid of 6.1 kilograms, thanks to the lightweight titanium construction.

Another benefit of the new exhaust is the gain of power. Paired with this particular 3 liter turbo engine, it brings an extra 8.8 hp, which may not seem sensational, but in a one-on-one challenge, this is a major advantage. And not only in this situation, but also in the fast curves, taken close to the redline. Those who like the middle range revs, will appreciate the increased torque by 7.1 Nm, thanks to the less restrictive exhaust system.

Add these numbers to the 370 hp and the 465 Nm and you’ll have the image of a very fast car, capable of accelerating as impressive as it sounds. In standard configuration, it does 100 km/h in just 4,3 seconds, but giving the fact that the new system is both lighter and less restrictive, we expect slightly improved values.

This exhaust system is a good choice for the BMW M2 owners, and, thanks to its advantages, it will probably be one of the most popular aftermarket exhaust amongst the M2 owners. And if we look at the Akrapovic heritage, this thing seems like a real winner!

The post F22 BMW M2 with Akrapovic exhaust sounds scary appeared first on BMW Car Tuning BLOG - BMW Car Modifications and Customization.

Today, it’s about a loud BMW M2, which became even louder, thanks to the Akrapovic Evolution Line titanium exhaust. It looks mean, it sounds meaner and it collaborates perfectly with the turbocharged V6 engine. What else could you wish for? Lightweight? Oh, it’s light, allright: being made of titanium, it looks hi tech, weigh less than the original and has that specific ”grrrr” sound.

However, as you can see in the film, there’s even more than just the exhaust. It’s also a new, lower KW Clubsport 3-way coilover suspension, which really transforms the M2’s stance. It looks way meaner then in its original form and it probably also drives better, but mainly on the track. On road, the distance between the BBS Flow Forming CI-R 20″ wheels and the fenders is so small, that I have doubts about its stability on bumpy surfaces. However, there are various ways of achieving the right setting for the suspension. Anyone can find the right setup in only few steps.

The engine is in its original form, but that’s ok, because 370 hp and 500 Nm of torque will satisfy almost anyone. On road, that’s a huge amount of power, and you won’t probably need it. In a race, though it’s not so much, but the engine is so easily upgradable, that it’s no problem squeezing 100 hp extra pretty fast and simple.

One side effect of this is the slightly mellower sound of the engine.

With the new generation of 3 and 4 Series, BMW decided to make sure the sound is still aggressive enough by enhancing it with through the speaker system. Some of the more purist fans of BMW, however, thought this was an insult, and might even got as far as to argue that the car maker has ruined the legacy with the new BMW M4.

Well, if you don’t like what BMW is offering, you can now go to Akrapovic and grab a nice new Evolution exhaust system. As every exhaust from the aftermarket specialist, this one sounds awesome, and it even comes with Evolution Racewerks Competition catless downpipes, for those few extra horses. Listen to it growl below.

This feature is not a boon in itself, but rather a way to mask one of the traits lost in this generation.

The sound of the engine in the 3 and 4 Series is a bit on the weak side, and the fanbase was quick to react to this. Even the M Division variants don’t do a better job at emitting crowd pleasing sounds. So then you are left with either accepting the synthetic sounds BMW put in or to go outside the brand and search for a new exhaust.

Luckily, Akrapovic is always happy to provide, and now they have teased the exhaust solution for the BMW M4. While the pictures provided are nice, I would have been far more satisfied with a few seconds of sweet engine sound. But the sound files and specs are yet to be released.
