BMW X5M/X6M F85 & F86 Valvetronic Designs Valved Exhaust System

Unleash the Full Potential of the S63

Engineered for BMW’s High-Performance SUVs

The BMW X5M and X6M are already powerhouses in performance, but from the factory, the S63’s soundtrack leaves room for improvement. At Valvetronic Designs, “decent” isn’t enough—so we developed the ultimate valved exhaust system to amplify both performance and emotion.

The Sound Experience

Connecting directly to stock or aftermarket free-flow downpipes, this system features a 2.75-inch free-flow design from inlet to outlet, running completely unrestricted to the exhaust tips.

  • Valves Closed: Retains a refined, comfortable tone with no drone, perfect for daily use.

  • Valves Open: Unleashes an aggressive, motorsport-inspired roar with sharp gear-change snaps and a commanding presence.

Through testing, we found that an unresonated configuration produces the rawest and most exciting sound, delivering maximum character without sacrificing drivability.

Uncompromised Craftsmanship

  • Material: Premium T304 stainless steel for strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.

  • OEM Valve Integration: Retains factory electronic valve control for seamless operation.

  • Mandrel-Bent Tubing: Optimized for maximum flow and performance gains.

  • Precision TIG Welding: Ensures strength and a flawless finish.

Key Features

  • 2.75" diameter for improved flow

  • Available with your choice of 3.5" custom exhaust tips

  • 9.8 lbs lighter than the factory exhaust

  • Electronic exhaust valves with factory-style control

  • 100% reversible – return to stock at any time

Fitment

  • 2015–2018 BMW X5M F85

  • 2015–2018 BMW X6M F86

This exhaust isn’t just an upgrade—it’s the transformation your X5M or X6M has been waiting for, bringing the S63 engine to life with the sound and presence it deserves.

ECU tuning works by modifying the software that controls engine parameters like fuel mixture, ignition timing, and boost pressure to optimize performance.

The process of installing a tune depends on the vehicle’s make and model. Some tunes are installed by connecting a tuning device to your car’s OBD-II port and uploading the tuned software, others may require ECU unlock.

Stage 1 is for vehicles with no modifications, stage 2 is for vehicles with bolt-on upgrades or downpipes installed.

We offer post-installation support, troubleshooting, and guidance on using your tuning software and hardware.

Choose tuning software that is compatible with your vehicle, has good reviews, and suits your performance goals (e.g., reliability vs. max power).
