BMW E65 3.0d — mild Stage 1 ECU tuning

Dyno testing and a mild Stage 1 ECU calibration for a 2007 BMW E65 3.0d.

Stage 1 DPF EGR dyno testing
Date 01.08.2019
Vehicle BMW E65
Year 2007
Engine 3.0L diesel

This 2007 BMW E65 with a 3.0-litre diesel engine was first tested on a dyno. The DPF had already been physically removed and the EGR valve blanked, but the engine software had not yet been adapted to those changes. The initial run recorded 236 hp and 515 Nm.

A mild Stage 1 calibration was then carried out, with the ECU also adapted for the DPF and EGR changes. The final run recorded 257 hp and 625 Nm. The video title lists factory figures of 231 hp and 500 Nm; the initial dyno result is a separate reading taken before the ECU calibration.
