Dahler is commonly known for its programs on plenty of models from German manufacturers like Audi, Mercedes-Benz or Porsche, yet it recently turned its attention towards BMW customizations. Well, not quite recently…as for the past five years or so.

Visually, the striking thing that I have first noticed was the new set of wheels. It involves much larger wheels, sized 9 x 21-inch and 10.5 x 21-inch front and rear, respectively. The wheels go swell with the bespoke sport suspension system with shock absorbers, which lowers the SUVs ride height and provide greater stance and increased grip. The shock absorbers also make it “make it sporty but never hard.”

Announcing a power increase and a wilder engine roar is the in-house built Dahler stainless steel exhaust system with no less than four tailpipes. It also enhances the SUV`s impressive stance and aggressive look.

Performance wise, the stock BMW X4 M40i is powered by a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine, developing 350 PS and 500 Nm of torque. However, with the tuner`s ECU remapping and new turbos, the M40i is now capable to churn out 420 PS and 630 Nm of torque, resulting an increase of 60 PS and 130 Nm of torque.

There is also good news for those owning the top of the line X4 M40d, the tuner also offering a tuning offer. The same stock engine puts it to 326 PS and 680 Nm of torque. Now, with the new power upgrade, the topper got no less than 380 PS and 780 Nm of torque, which is quite impressive. We would have loved hearing about the performance figures it the straight line, but for the moment, the tuner chose not to reveal that for the moment. Hopefully we get updates pretty soon!

Until then, you can admire the gorgeous BMW X4 in its top of the line M40d form in the media gallery below! Enjoy and don’t forget to tell us if you like the new tuning tweaks!

Everything is possible today, especially in the tuning segment, with plenty of aftermarket shops that offer customized services depending on the model in question. For BMW especially, AC Schnitzer from Germany has become a dedicated tuner, willing to satisfy your wildest dreams.

For the BMW M5 Competition, the technicians from AC Schnitzer are also throwing in some amazing customizations. One particular model has popped up at BMW Abu Dhabi Motors with a custom aero kit and new power under the hood.

For the model in question, AC Schnitzer have added a spectacular body wrap, along with the amazing body kit made from carbon fiber. This makes the M5 Competition more radical in terms of design.

The body kit comes with bespoke front splitter, carbon fiber front spoiler, carbon fiber ‘Racing’ rear wing, rear diffuser, carbon fiber side skirts, rear rood spoiler, high-gloss black accents on the grille, mirror caps and rear bumper, as well as the “Competition” badge. The mods also continue inside, with plenty of new features to separate it from the standard M5 Competition.

The power of this M5 Competition has also been modified. In standard form, the sports car comes with 617 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque. However, with the tuner`s ECU remapping and a couple of more mechanical enhancements, this lad here is now capable of churning out no less than 690 horsepower and staggering 850 Nm of torque.

With the factory sprint from standstill to 100 km/h performed in 3.3 seconds, with the new power kit, the BMW M5 Competition by AC Schnitzer is now able to perform the same distance in around 3.0 seconds, which is mind-blowing.

Besides the impressive power kits, G-Power has also turned its attention towards detailing the exterior of its projects, creating insane aero packages with aggressive looks.

The tuner`s latest project is the below BMW X5M Typhoon, now coming with a wide aero kit and increased power under the hood. To demonstrate how good they are in what they do, the aftermarket specialists have also released a video which thoroughly explains their impressive work.

Visually, the BMW X5M Typhoon by G-Power now comes with wider air intakes up front, massive fender flares, dynamic side skirts or rear bumper with 102 mm diameter tailpipes. The overall design looks smashing with the huge 23-inch ultra-forged alloy wheels, wrapped in 315/23ZR23 high-performance tires.

In the engine department, this lad here received some important new tweaks, and that in order to increase the 4.4-liter`s output.

We are looking here at the tuner`s well-known Bi-Tronik 2 V3 engine control software, with new turbines that are now faster, adding as well a titanium sports exhaust system with stainless steel downpipes and four wide exit pipes. All in one, the model is now developing an impressive 750 horsepower and 980 Nm of torque, making it one of the fastest SUVs in the world. However, the tuner has not released any performance figures at that moment.

Stay tuned for more details, meanwhile, take a look at the video with the tuner`s new project on the outstanding BMW X5M!

It comes with an insane body language and aggressive look, massive wheels and sheer performance under the hood. However, in case you find the model too boring or ugly, then one choice for making it look better would be resorting to an aftermarket shop.

And one best solution would be with no doubt Manhart tuner, with German aftermarket specialists that know all BMW models by heart. The tuner`s project below is called MHX6 800 and is now coming with a new power upgrade and some new add-ons at the exterior.

Black is always the best colour to fit the X6 M`s exquisite exterior, providing the model with a more aggressive look and greater stance, and adding new components, will make it even more appreciated.

The new highlights refer to bespoke bumpers, vented hood, trunklid spoiler and rear diffuser. The entire kit is complemented with the new alloy wheels and Manhart badging.

Inside of the MHX6 800, the cabin is also wearing Manhart`s signature, adding carbon accents, Manhart plaques, leather upholstery and much more.

Under the hood, the BMW X6 M MHX6 800 is a real monster with a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, which has now been upgraded to develop 823 horsepower and whopping 1,100 Nm of torque. This was possible thanks to an ECU remapping and some new mechanical bits.

You can find out more details in the media gallery below provided by Manhart tuner! Enjoy and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

BMW purists do appreciate the astonishing work of the aftermarket specialists from G-Power, which have created an impressive portfolio based on BMW models, particularly on the M2, M3 or M4 hot rides.

Now, their special skills were also perfected on the E92 BMW M3 seen below, which has received an impressive amount of power, placing it in the world of supercars. We are dealing here with 710 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque.

Even if you are wondering how this was possible, then we should fill you in with some info and details released by the tuner itself. The technicians took down the car`s stock 4.0-liter V8 engine and replaced it with its bigger brother – a 4.5-liter banger, adding as well a couple of more technical stuff which for the moment remain hidden.

As opposed to the factory power – “just” 296 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, the final output makes it scream with power and torque. This also allows a sprint from 0 to 200 km/h in a mind blowing 9.8 seconds, at a top speed of 330 km/h.

But that`s not all. Besides the new power output, the German technicians have also added some of their “specialties” at the exterior, perfectly combining advanced aerodynamics with the power kit. At a closer look, you could observe the detailing – new carbon fiber body elements with wide wheel arches, massive rear wing, large air intakes. The entire kit is complemented with the 19-inch wheels, wrapped in 295/30 and 325/30 front and rear tires, respectively.

All the tuner`s work can be seen in the video presentation released below. Enjoy and stay tuned for our latest posts on BMW M3s!

A very interesting project is presented to you by Lightweight Performance tuner, which has added a lot of power to the below M2 Coupe.

Not the first M2 to receive the S55 engine found on the M3 and M4, our model in question is bragging with plenty of power and torque.

We are looking here with the same 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine with water injection system from the M4 GTS, meaning that it churns out around 612 horsepower and impressive 767 Nm of torque.

However, during several testing on the track, the power seemed to be too much for the model, especially since it comes with a lightweight chassis, which made the tuner downgrade the power to 590 horsepower and 737 Nm of torque.

Besides the power upgrade, the model has also received some new visual features, like carbon fiber rear wing or the 19-inch alloy wheels, coming with 265/35 and 295/30 front and rear Michelin Cup2 tires. The cabin also received sports seats, roll cage, new driving modes and head-up display.

Mechanically, the model is also coming with Drexler limited-slip differential, carbon fiber ceramic braking system and a couple more. You can find out more about the model in the media gallery below!

But there are just a handful of BMW products that the German tuner favors, and those would be the M2, M3 and M4. The latter one is seen in the video below, revving its engine to impress us all with the new power kit and soundtrack.

We are dealing here with the tuner`s new power kit, which raises its power to a total of 670 horsepower and 760 Nm of torque, quite impressive than the stock 425 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque.

This also allows a mind-blowing acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h – just 3.5 seconds, at a top speed of whopping 330 km/h. We are thus looking here at the tuner`s well-known Bi-Tronik 2 V4 kit with ECU remapping, bespoke turbochargers with new turbine and curved turbine blades, also seen on other models like the M2, M4 or X5 and X6.

As for the exterior, this hot-looking BMW M4 is also coming with some new styling tweaks, like 90 mm carbon tailpipes and a lightweight exhaust system. The exterior changes are also complemented with the tuner`s new Hurricane RR forged alloy wheels, sized 21×9 and 21×10.5, front and rear, respectively.

You can find out more details about the BMW M4 by G-Power in the video below. Enjoy the exquisite experience and don’t forget to share your impressions with us!

The E39 BMW M5 was a truly iconic M5 that impressed all BMW purists with sheer power and extraordinary performance. It came out with a potent 5.0-liter V8 engine and a massive body style, allowing however an impressive sprint.

However, the technicians from Technica Motorsports decided to spicy up things a little bit, by fitting a Supra-sourced engine under the hood. We are looking here at the 2JZ straight-six pot, with massive turbocharged bolt, allowing for a mind-blowing 800 horsepower.

However, this engine, if run on “safe tune” can produce up to a whopping 1,200 horsepower.

Besides the monster engine, the E39 BMW M5 also comes with some new modifications at the body. The new elements, make it extremely wide and aggressive, especially if we are dealing here with the massive 335/30 tires fitted on the huge alloys.

The wide body kit was made from steel and not from the traditional fiberglass. Despite that it is extremely heavy, this lad here is capable of an impressive sprint from 0 to 100 km/h. Technica Motorsports have promised to come back with more details on that. Meanwhile, enjoy the video below!

And there are plenty of famous tuners to deal with customizations at the exteriors, and others that are specialized in delivering the best packages under the hood. One of those tuners is no other than the German-based house G-Power.

G-Power is a famous aftermarket shop that has been creating powerful programs on different BMW products for so many years that we lost count of the exact number. Anyway, they recently added to other special models to their impressive portfolio.

It now includes to rides that haven’t received the best appreciation so far – the E46 330i from the 3-Series and the E85 Z4 Roadster, both receiving a power boost under the hood.

We are looking at the tuner`s SK Plus supercharger, available for just 3,867 euros, and which comes with some impressive customizations under the hood, including an ECU remapping.

For instance, the 330i`s 3.0-liter straight-six petrol burner is now churning out 306 horsepower and 360 Nm of torque, which is quite impressive from the stock 231 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque.

The E85 Z4`s 2.5-liter naturally aspirated flat-four pot has also been tweaked to deliver more than the standard 189 horsepower and 245 Nm of torque. Unfortunately, for this particular ride, we do not have the official numbers.

The latest project comes from Japan and it was officially presented at the 2017 Tokyo Auto Show, the “Mecca” show of world`s most famous tuning programs.

The below BMW M2 Coupe has received an impressive aero package from Studie Japan tuner, the model also being highlighted in an impressive video released below. We have now the real pleasure of showing it to you!

This would be another impressive wrap added to the baby-M, the car`s camouflage making it ready for some guerilla action in the Amazon. It is mainly highlighted by the tiger-stripped wrap with matte black front end, adding as well the 19-inch red alloy wheels from BBS. The rear is also coming with a massive wing which is increases its overall aerodynamics.

The list of mods also include the interior. The aftermarket technicians have also added two Recaro front seats and a roll cage, along with gauges on the passenger`s side and more.

Since we are dealing here with a full package, the engineers have also installed a power kit under the hood, involving a bespoke intake and an ECU remapping, which raises the car`s power, Unfortunately, there aren`t any official figures released, but we expect at least 50 horsepower and 50 Nm of torque over the stock 365 horsepower and 465 Nm of torque. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is also improved, standing as well at less than the stock 4.3 seconds.
