Sure 800 HP hyper cars are fun out of the box, but there is nothing more satisfying than tuning a beautiful car like this M5 and then testing it out on the roads!
I love the fact you guys keep working on older cars, especially for customers who have been with you for a long time! So cool to see the e39 getting the attention to detail the f90 is subjected to! 👌👌
Thanks Imran for showing a Very professional and intelligent upgrade to one of my favourite cars. I am inspired to get another after seeing what you can do to them.
Looks soo leggit what they are doing. Just found them here. I am In Switzerland. If it rains some serious money, i will get me some superchange job by them. Had this M5 back in '03 till '08. Is one of the best lomo V8 stroaker beasts ever build.
Phenomenal work bro.... Wish you were around when I had my E39.... Had an E28, E34, E39 and the flawed E60.... Need to find a nice E39 now and ship it to you to work on bro.
It's pretty clear from even the comments that the older M cars are more appreciated by people than the newer ones, and they seem to attract a different kind of audience too! My E46 M3 is still running the Eventuro and your remap and still doing really well. Hopefully in the near future I'll do some more N/A enhancements to it so expect a visit from me once more!
If it's getting charged I'm interested. Cant beat that charger whine. I've only got an old r53 cooper s and its sounds megs when you boot it. All you can hear is the charger . Just love it
Love your vids, I enjoyed my 400+ mile round trip to you a few years back when you remapped and delimited my E46 M3. I hope to get another or possibly an E39 in a few years and will be bringing it to you
@evolve - have you thought about looking into designing intake kits for the E39 530i M54 engines? There are a lot of them out there and a decent air intake kit is always going to be of interest to folk; as long as it's not silly money etc...
Is there a way to open up the fog port and the side of the lower "mouth" grille to allow greater airflow to that intercooler? I love the idea of placing it there, but I'm curious what the delta is between pre and post intercooler temps and whether or not the unit achieving its full potential. Also, does the addition of wheel arch vents cause nose lift at highway (or higher than highway) speeds? Granted the car is pretty well planted, but I got nose lift at 160mph which had me stabbing the brake pedal pretty quickly!
You could open it up more yes, but the idea behind the kit is that there’s no cutting (other than an arch liner) and that it’s almost invisible from the outside. Through extensive high speed testing we didn’t notice any change in handling characteristics
Great video, lovely car. Why didn't go with air to water system that's my question, the packaging deficiencies specially for those who don't want to cut their front end would suit a air to water kit better. The side mount FMIC is not big enough i'm afraid for higher boost levels.
Looks great, I've upgraded my 2003 M5 significantly, currently a Dinan S2...this kit looks great to push me over the top. [Or should I say boost me over the top!]
Evolve Automotive I have about 90k miles on the car. All mine and well cared for. Would you suggest a more “reasonable” boost? All my Dinan upgrades have been engine related. Headers, intakes, software. No cam.
how much hp could you get out of a 190k miles bmw e39 523i m52b25 engine. the engine is in a good shape changed the oil last week perfectly black and no flakes of metal
540 guys usually try making their E39 look like an ///M5. Meanwhile some ///M5 owners decide to put on crap rims and blacked out grills and big brake calipers. Why not leave the beautiful E39 ///M5 the way it was designed?
Just curious on what gearbox you have in your mind to swap into E60 M5 because from what I see simpliest method is swapping an North American market manual M5 ecu and harness along with the transmission and that is really hard to come by nowadays.
Is there a specific reason you are dynoing the car in 3rd gear? Because 5th gear is 1:1 and would give more accurate results regarding the actual power.
I like what your company is doing! Where does air enter the cooler? Does it go underneath the engine block or all around? And is that hole next to a fog light big enough to provide enough air flow to cool the intercooler? What are the expected temperatures on the inlet and outlet of the intercooler? Just a mech engineer thats curious XDD...Thanks in advance. Have a nice day guys!
Very well thought out kit. Was a positive displacement kit considered? If a manifold is being engineered and made, I wonder if a positive displacement supercharger would make more sense. Would love to see a similar video on our S65 kit

have you ever driven a 800hp hyper car tho? :P
Wanking with a cheese grater is damn satisfying I'll tell ya.
800HP Hypercar? New M5 F90 with Stage 2 has around 780HP and 0-60 in 2.8 sec

an E39 540i was the first bmw i ever drove and the first v8, Great cars!
Is it reliable ??
@@Yasser-iq7tz I got rid of it when I cracked the differential case going 80mph over a speed bump, but it seemed pretty reliable until then
@@Yasser-iq7tz no
@@Yasser-iq7tz keep up on the little things and you’ll be fine. Mine is 315k and still running strong
The e39 540i has terrible reliability. The motor is a nightmare.

The amount of hours alone spent researching , Building ,tweaking parts to get a finished product like this must have been soul destroying but worth it
A huge amount of R&D goes in to making something like this.
3:23 that look you give your boss seeing if he heard you break a customer's underbelly pan.. DOHHH!!
Lol I noticed that too
Yes that was very humorous 😂
am he dont hear me moving on :D
just like a booger
Removing the belly pan on these cars is surprisingly violent, so it's probably fine 😅
The engineering & build quality of that kit looks top notch, love the thinking behind that bracket assembly 👌
3:25 guy in the backgroud " did someone see that" :D
TopiAS06 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
TopiAS06 yea he broke something 3:21
Ohh shit that will coming outta of pay check lol
Love the bracket design, best SC install I have seen for the E39. Well done guys.
Will look forward to seeing the Red M5 video
that plenum is a work of art
One of the best BMW's ever made, made even better.
You mean ruined
@@coennijmeijer89 define ruined
Sotisesnygg an original e39 M5 is a true masterpiece. You don’t go around adding stuff to the Mona Lisa now do you?
That badge on the front is so tacky sorry man
Thanks Imran for showing a Very professional and intelligent upgrade to one of my favourite cars. I am inspired to get another after seeing what you can do to them.
I wish you guys had a shop in the States, preferably in Florida! Too many guys hack up cars here instead of "enhancing" them!
Love your work!
same im in florida too bmw gang

I like the Johnathan King glasses...!!!
Lovely kit. Great to see it layed out and the machined aluminium parts are things of beauty. Great video!!
Love seeing new products for the E39 M5!
E39 M5, my favourite M car, nice to see these classics being enjoyed 👍🏾
Back to hear this car again so beautiful
Man, you guys do some pretty serious stuff here. That kit is amazing, and remarkable that you guys develop all this stuff yourselves.👍👍💞
That is a really awesome kit! Looks like it fits perfect, no drilling no cutting!
White interior and those black wheels made the car looking SICCKKKKK.
Phenomenal work bro.... Wish you were around when I had my E39.... Had an E28, E34, E39 and the flawed E60.... Need to find a nice E39 now and ship it to you to work on bro.
Still my favorite BMW to date.. I've 3 e39's and loved them all.. I'll own another one day.
Do they hold up? Look to buy a 535i e39 with 250k miles just to have fun

Love the step by step in the whole video! Amazing cars, E39 M5's are forever in my heart! Cant wait for your red video feature!
That intro of the s85b50 sound is legendary.
You couldn't run A2W intercooler bricks in the new aluminum intake manifold? There are several manifolds that do that in the LS world.
The kit looks awesome. The car itself has ALOT done to it aswell, that interior is not stock, and the wheels..oh the horror.
Great Kit. Make one for the M5 e60.
Just did. I hope to hear from you soonest.
the inside is so clean
What a beautiful car and a sick kit!! That plenum is sexy under the hood too!👌🏽Thank you for another🔥🔥video Imran!!
I want. I need. I'll be supercharging mine soon, maybe with your kit . Looks great. Also wish you had a shop in the US. west coast
I live in georgia got e39 m5 and wondering how to get an install this kit here
the interior is really nice
You talk like it's a documantry from the 80's, I really like that vibe. Do have to add that the glasses you have on finishes the retro 80's vibe.
I wish you guys made an sc kit for the first gen rs5 v8...
What an unreal kit, good job guys!

any chance of getting a restock on these?

is it the aspect ratio on the video or are the roads that narrow in the uk? awesome cars. and what a kit.
B roads can be pretty narrow! We’re used to it though 😉
Super clean, would look pretty sweet in a black finish.
Have the Same Kit and did a black matte powder coat, Looks awesome and much More oem
@@mTwMarco Yes - Matt Black with a Carbon Fiber skin over the Billet Aluminum Plenum for a bit carbon fiber look!
Fantastic work guys do you do performance upgrades for the B7 RS4 Supercharger?
is there a kit for the E60 V10 M5 ???? THAT WOULD BE CRAZY...............................
At last a nice interior color and not that boring black
Omg this is my dream. One day I will have this kit on my m5. You guys are masters
Dear Evolve your supercharger kit is out of stock any idea when u guys are going to get it back please 🙏?
We have now discontinued this product
I pickup my 2001 on Sunday. Very interested in this! What seats or seat covers are those in the test drive?
Custom interior 👍
Nice kit. Respectable numbers and a classic vehicle.
Last week I drove a 540 i v8 it was AAAMMMAAAZZING but it was rainy so we couldn't do a kick down😭😭😭😭
Looks-very professional guy at 3:25 looks like he broke the under-tray on the M5 as he looks at the camera hoping nobody noticed.
Lol

Its the customers personal preference. We like them more OEM some people don't.
The link doesn’t show the kit
I was wondering, how could it be when you used carbon plenum in that set up ? (Of course, If it has enough strength )
is that a stock interior? seats are different leather. I own a 2001 M5 and would love to do the same, your kit included.
Yes the interior had a full retrim. Email us on sales@evolveautomotive.com, we can give your M5 a new life ✌🏻
Has the supercharger kit an influence on the weight distribution?
Imran killing it👌
What do you think of a rhd e60 m5 manual swap e90 box or 550i?
Just curious on what gearbox you have in your mind to swap into E60 M5 because from what I see simpliest method is swapping an North American market manual M5 ecu and harness along with the transmission and that is really hard to come by nowadays.
Some say that the 550i is the same box but the s85 mates upto the e90 m3 box
200mph possible? Would love to see one of these hit that speed
Have the same Kit. Did easily over 300kmh, so yeah 200mph is possible.
You guys ever going to do a kit for E60 M5?
Why not weld a fixed elbow onto the supercharger?
When ever I get one I might do the NA tune.
Totally off topic: do you think your team is capable of converting an E60 M5 from SMG to 6 speed manual?
I’m sure we could do it, but it’s not something we’d take on as a job.
Evolve Automotive For the right price I’m sure you can 🤭
Is there a specific reason you are dynoing the car in 3rd gear? Because 5th gear is 1:1 and would give more accurate results regarding the actual power.
Its the correct gear for this dyno for this car
@@EvolveAutomotive I guess the dyno isn't built for high roller speeds but rather built for high torques?
@@maxritter7868 the manufacturer of the dyno recommends doing the run on the gear that's ends closest to 100 mph so it's usually 3rd or 4th.
Anyone know where i can get same seats like here ?
Guys, could you make the same work for B48 engine in BMW E53?
The intercooler doesn't seem like it gets any airflow
We’ve extensively tested this kit and the intercooler works effectively.
Ia this kit possible to make work with M62TUB44? From - 01 E39 540i
Wow amazing how much r&d you guys do to make some amazing kit, keep up the great work/videos.
Do you have to do any changes on the rear end with all the added horsepower?
I like what your company is doing! Where does air enter the cooler? Does it go underneath the engine block or all around?

Nice job
Cheers
Omg there’s another e39 m5 there too ❤️❤️❤️
Where are those seats from!?
All 6 people that will buy this kit will be stoked..
Far more than 6 kits already out there! We’ve been making this kit for many years now.
Have 2 e39 m5 would like to supercharging of them. What is the price for the kit?
Do you guys offer an option for forge the engine and prevent vanos issues on this model?
Thank you for not ruining the video with annoying trash EDM music. People insist that a car video have it nowadays like its a requirement.
Superb content as always Imran. Love the e39. Cheers
Very well thought out kit. Was a positive displacement kit considered? If a manifold is being engineered and made, I wonder if a positive displacement supercharger would make more sense.
Would love to see a similar video on our S65 kit
I love that you guys are featuring a car from three generations ago. Now you just need some S85 content .. preferably M6.. preferably NA build.... (;
What's a ball park figure for this kit fitted? Would love one on my e39 m5 in the future.
The full kit is £10,400 and it takes around 2 days to install, for an accurate quote please email sales@evolveautomotive.com
