I have a 2020 x3 rs r max. It has 172 hp. Is there a way to change it over to 195hp? I understand there are plenty of aftermarket options but I'm looking for an oem type upgrade. Thanks.

only rr cars are 195hp
and they have bigger injectors and a bigger turbo
a very expensive upgrade
also most aftermarket tunes around 200hp require bigger injectors

Is there something the 172HP isn't getting done for you?

Search the site or do a Google search fer fooks-sake ya lazy bastaad! lol

I know I've read the specific differences between the R & the RR several times on here. I know just off the top of my head that the RR has a bigger intercooler & I believe the Turbo is bigger also but I think there are also a couple more items that do the deed all together & get that bid 195 HP number.

And keep in mind that 195 HP is with a stock tune &.. a HP number way over that 200 HP benchmark are acheivable with merely a tune &... a couple additional goodies bring in on even higher!

There is a Factory price difference of approximately 5 thousand dollars between the R & the RR so.. Ya, there are some things.

5 Large is a lot of money for a measly 23 HP! But shee-it, I went for it!
I was asking myself,..
'Who wants to be second best man?'
I don't think anybody does but yet, some still get bargained into it don't they?
Yup!

evo tune with stock exhaust, adjusting the crack pressure on the gate
with a stage 3r will get you 200 give or take. easy to do, they even sell the vacuum gauge to do it for like $65 or something. dont even have to go elsewhere to buy another item. $600 and some change is probably the easiest 28hp you will get from the machine. if you can get 93 octane or av fuel, youll really be set.

I ran AA 110 octane tune on my 172, they guarantee it to be around the 200 mark, I had ran a stage 3 from rvs prior, it was a night and day difference, they also recommended a intercoolerfan over ride to keep the intercooler cool, they said it wasnt nothing to see a 5hp change from an intercooler fan on constant with on and off wot runs vs it coming on and off with throttle at factory settings , but as stated the waste gate Crack pressure must be adjusted correctly, a lil mity vac hand pump works perfect for that.

I have a 2021 DS turbo R 172hp and recently someone I know is parting out their x3 which is a 2022 rs turbo RR with the 200hp wants to see what parts I would need to upgrade my horsepower from what I’ve seen here I think it’s the inner cooler and Injectors and a tune is there any differences in the turbos? Is the RR equipped with a bigger turbo? The parts are here for free so is there anything I need to make the conversion easier?
