Hi Guys,
New to the forum here.

I bought this when I moved from SA to Canada in 2017.

59k on the clock when purchased and now sitting at around 87k.

Did a few basic mods over the years.

Dinan intake
Swift spec r springs
Oem zcp rims
Cat delete
Exhaust mod
Stage 2 tune from alpine
Rod bearings (be bearings with arp bolts)
Engine mounts
Mr12volt unit for carplay and Aa
Coded in apps (Spotify, m lap timer, go pro integration in the BMW interface etc.)
20% ceramic tints 40%windshield tints

Cars been running great so far no issues.

Here are some images of the car over the years.

Does tuning a N/A vehicle have significant benefits?

Thanks!

So in terms of power alone, there is only so much you can extract. I'm up around 50hp. Power delivery with the tune is a lot better, low end is way better. I also did gts flash on the gearbox so shifts are improved. I am also tuned to 93 octane here, sa/eu equivalent of 98 RON.

This car specifically, with a performance exhaust and a tune can make quite a bit more power. 20-40kw. Most people raise the limiter to 8800rpm as well, which is safe on the S65. Coastal figures.

Depends what you deem 'significant'.. I've had the M3 tuned since last year and the car feels AMAZING.

Did the full exhaust and BMC drop in but felt like the car was running a bit rich, spoke to TuneTech and Xcede - was advised to do software to optimize the AFR's and ensure everything works together, since its no longer factory spec.. Couldn't be happier, the drivability has improved and the power delivery just feels right.

Sherwin and Juvan understood my brief of drivability/feel, as opposed to sacrificing reliability to win dyno wars with the car. Gained approximately 20wkw and 35wnm, at the reef - Doesn't sound like much but changed the entire driving dynamic for the better. Also the burbles with new exhaust are so much better now (not be confused with pops and bangs, hate that!).

In Canada?

In Canada?

Ok probably 30k Cad

You were right. Approx 50k CAD is what it can fetch. South of the border slightly more closer to 60k CAD
