Any real-world 0-60 times?

What have you been getting out of your 40i, M50i, XB7? Serious answers only please. Anyone going with JB4 for their N63? I feel I could push my M50i close to the Alpina numbers…

I’m looking to keep on par with all those Audi RS V8s (typically in the 3.5s range) and some of the American V8s (also in 3.5s range). Or even the new Cayenne Turbo GT (3.5). The Cayennes are generally slow for the horsepower they have (ie base N63 X7 keeps up with Cayenne GTS and is close to Cayenne Turbo).

I'd love to see what my XB7 is putting down. Is Dragy still the best app to use for iPhone? Looked in the App Store and it's only got 8 reviews.

Yeah I think that's the best one out there yet... at least that's what some of my friends use with their more Supercar type vehicles.

Look - this is a good ol' sh**-talking other cars thread - let's not be humble for once: I think the Xb7 will put down a 3.7-3.8 or better, given BMW understates power and numbers. I also think it would have much better pull at 60mph+ compared to most Cayenne's, RS Audi SUVs and some AMGs. Actually AMG disqualified itself since they're not selling V8s anymore outside of the G-Wagon and that thing is definitely slower than even an X7 M50i.

My 2019 X7 40i will consistently hit 60 in 5.2 seconds which is far better than the BMW numbers state. This is also at 2700ft in the VA mountains so no telling how well it would do at sea level. At any rate i think that is more than acceptable for a heavy SUV with a 6 cylinder engine.

Imagine how it would feel with a DME tune!

Yeah from what I read JB4 map 2 alone will add 100hp and 140tq to the N63.

Damn, is that what they are charging for the new dme unlock tunes? Pre June 2020 DMEs are just a few hundred.

The M50i will do 4.1 but i believe that’s w a 1 ft rollout. So probably 4.3 realistically.

I thought the old dragy app let you do runs without the separate gps box…

Am I misremembering?

For the N63 DMEtuning.com is saying +157hp… pretty crazy. Thinking a JB4 is safer.

I have done a Draggy 4.1 with a almost full tank of gas last summer. I am positive I can do a 4 flat or better with less than a 1/4 tank and in cooler weather. I am at 500ft sea level. I got really good at launches with my last G05 X5 50i M-Sport. The fastest launches were not with launch control but loading the brake pedal. My wife could get 4.5 all day long in my X5 50i just by mashing the pedal. Very consistent and that’s what surprising is how effortless these will constantly have a killer launch every time with no effort.

I took MystroX5's advice and did another run last summer outside of Denver with a light tank. Best that Draggy captured was 4.3. Nonetheless, pretty impressive for a 5,500+lb vehicle!

Let us know what you get! I’d be very interested. Won’t try myself until the summers go back on…

That is outstanding at that high of a elevation. I think sea level could pull a occasional sub 4. We are splitting hairs with a lot of this but the most impressive takeaway is how consistent these are at really fast launches with no effort.

Not talking down the M50i, I loved mine. But it’s not near as close as you might think to a XB7. If your looking for the quickest it’s any MOPAR with the hellcat motor(trackhawk, Durango) I have the Jeep and the XB7 and I don’t drive the Jeep ever. But I do drive my Ram TRX. XB7 is best all around I’ve driven of any brand.

Alpina uses larger turbos and forged pistons if I'm not mistaken so you won't be able to get that output from an M50i with just a tune.

Agreed. Even at low 4's, the vehicle feels so damn fast. We all know the X7's natural habitat is the highway from 60-120+

I haven't done any launch control blasts yet but I have been bullying the shit out of these ghetto ass Chicago mopars on the freeway.

Next time I'll turn on the drive recorder. 😈
