The Best of The Best F12/F13 Performance Tuner!
Hello,
Like the title states, I’m conducting a research to determine the overall BEST performance tuner for the M6. I have listed some of the ones that I know right off the top of my head. One of which I’m currently running in my F13. Please forgive me if I have left any tuner off the list, because I already know that I did. There are May out there. And, all have made claims that theirs is the very best. So, to better determine the best tuner, I would rather get first hand reports from actual owners of M6s with installed tuners. Thanks for your feedback. *AC Schnitzer *Dinan *G-Power *Evolve *Noelle *Evotech *PP-Performance *Manhart racing *Kelleners Sport *Turner Motorsport *Active Autowerke *Hamann *Burger Tuning *VR (Vivid Racing) *Mission Tuning *Evolution Tuning *RaceChip USA *ESS *BootMod3 (unable to add to earlier poll, sorry). ? ? ?

To further add to the thread, I have a piggyback tuner. It’s not the best tuner at all. I don’t care for it. I am now in the market for a new tuner. I’m not fond of piggyback tuners out there for the f12/f13. Most of the good OBDII flash tuners are much more expensive. However, I think that they are much better than the piggyback tuners currently available today for our M6s. So, with that type of financial investment in a new tuner, I may, as well, do an extensive research before doling out any cash.
Plus, I am also very concerned with the immediate and long term use of several of the tuners out there. Let’s face it, our cars aren’t cheap. BMWs are expensive, so it would make no sense to get any tuner that has the potential to cause significant damages to our vehicular investments. |

I just wonder why BMW doesn’t take more power out of these engines when it’s so easy? The answer is probably that they don’t want to deal with the warranty claims when all sorts of things start failing... Bad for reputation, and I’m not sure if anyone can really claim that our cars are slow... Well, the good thing is that we can all choose what we do with our cars - mine will never see an after market tune! 600 hp is quite enough for a road car. Visual mods is whole different thing, but IMO they would need to improve what’s good in the looks of the original car, not change it for something it wasn’t... But hey, these are just my opinions... |

Perfect example of BMW’s reluctance to maximize the full performance of their vehicles, is their recent joint venture with Toyota. They both developed a new vehicle. For Toyota it’s called the Supra. For BMW, their version is called the Z4. While BMW chose to give their Z4 255hp, Toyota has given their version of the very same vehicle 335hp. The only difference between the two is the tune that Toyota added to their Supra. The same thing with their exterior stylings. Toyota’s has a very sleek and sporty styling, but BMW chose to go very conservatively, with a bland looking car. BMW refuses to create an aftermarket division for their vehicles. That’s why many folks have sought to improve the overall performance of their BMWs with tuners, etc. |

AC-Schnitzer improves the hp on long term and not to max. hp which is a good thing. |

I feel like it's kind of impossible to determine which tune is the "best". Unless you had a driver trying each tune and comparing them back to back on the same car, there really isn't a real way to compare tunes other than dynos. And honestly dynos don't reflect how a car actually drives... Some people like high low end torque and others like high top end.
