Alpina B6 tuning
Hi, so my dad has an Alpina B6 and he’s looking into tuning it. We can’t find any info on what wheel horsepower it has, what kind of forged internals it has or what size turbos it has on it. I know it’s an N63TU, but would he be able to throw a bootmod3 tune on it and put like a stage 3 tune on? Or would it have to be custom tuned? There aren’t any OTS Alpina tunes for sale or any info on it, so if anyone knows about the technical performance aspects that would be appreciated. Thanks!

Not sure why you can’t find anything on what HP it has and why would that matter if you’re going to tune it. HP numbers are public and widely published. Google the year and model.
Furthermore, the Alpina is already tuned hence why it’s an Alpina. However, if your dad really wants more power, he could go with a simple Dinan tune for some modest gains. |

If you are trying tune a car with that level of detail, factory wheel hp when it walked off the assembly line will be irrelevant anyway.
Go get a dyno of your dads car to establish a baseline, then move up from there with a reputable tunner. Current state and engine health will determine actually HP numbers. There are plenty of people that have tuned their alpina engines even more, just go to Facebook and look up some n63 clubs. Good luck, and you will most definitely get better answers by research then asking on forums. |
