2007-2010 E60 535i/535xi Stage 1 Performance Package Peak Power Gain: +65hp / +99ft-lbs Octane: 91 or higher
Our Stage 1 kit features a cold-air intake kit and performance software for a staggering increase in power and torque. We offer this package with the aFe Dual Cone Intake (DCI) to open up the breathing. The larger surface area of the filters allows more air to enter the engine - creating more power and torque, a richer engine sound, and better throttle response. The kit is supplied complete with aFe Pro5R filters, mounting shield, intake tubes, sealing materials, hardware, and install instructions. The torque increase from low-mid RPM is sensational.
We have paired the aFe DCI with the Cobb AccessPort performance software. The Cobb software tool puts multiple tuning stages in the palm of your hand. Our Stage 1 Performance Package is aligned with the Cobb Stage 1 tuning map. Simply plug it in, select the Stage 1 map with your octane preference, and install. Select different maps for other upgrades, throttle settings, octane ratings, valet mode, or revert back to stock! If you're moving up in Stages simply download a new file from the Cobb website and update your AccessPort programmer! The AccessPort triples as a diagnostic tester/reader and a data logger. It's the most feature-packed programmer on the market today.
