F90 m5 turbos in an F10 m5???

thurstonhowelltha3rd · 02-01-2021, 02:27 PM

Hello. I am a potential f10 m5 buyer. I noticed that the turbos s63tU in the f10 m5 has the same Garrett model number as the turbos in the s63t4 F90 m5. But they carry a different BMW part number. I could not find any info about anyone attempting to swap these in. Can anyone tell me if the F90 m5 stock turbos are stout enough to be considered an upgrade and if so, if this is a more reliable option than the aftermarket offerings?

Just out of curiosity, why not use the ones designed for the F10?

More power. I'm sure they will max out at a higher PSI. And oem turbos are usually have more R&D than aftermarket turbos. Thanks for the reply sir.
