This BMW 435d xDrive Coupé (F32) came in for our Stage 1 custom dyno tune for the N57 3.0 twin-turbo diesel, with an xHP Stage 3 calibration for its ZF 8-speed automatic, both developed on the same visit.

On the baseline run it made 302.2bhp and 596Nm. With our calibration and xHP Stage 3 it made 387.5bhp and 776Nm, with 338.2bhp at the wheels. That is 85.3bhp and 180Nm more:
| Measurement | Stock | DC Stage 1 Custom & xHP ST3 |
|---|---|---|
| Engine power | 302.2 hp @ 4,473rpm | 387.5 hp @ 4,617rpm |
| Engine torque | 596 Nm @ 2,294rpm | 776 Nm @ 2,277rpm |
| Wheel power | 239.0 hp @ 4,033rpm | 338.2 hp @ 4,048rpm |

The gain is not just at the peak. Tuned, this 435d holds over 750Nm from around 2,000 to 2,900rpm and over 700Nm all the way to 3,800rpm, with 150Nm or more extra torque from around 1,950 to 4,200rpm, and stays above 380bhp from around 3,950 to 5,050rpm. For reference, BMW’s M8 makes 750Nm from the factory. xHP Stage 3 lets the 8-speed handle the extra torque properly, with quicker, sharper shifts.

Diagnostics and a health check first, then baseline runs on our 4WD linked dyno with live data logging. The engine calibration was built from there with repeated runs, the gearbox was flashed with xHP Stage 3, and the final pulls verified the result. No generic files: a calibration written for this car, proven on our dyno.
