Manhart Racing gets Torquey with their new Diesel Tuning Programs

Manhart Racing Diesel Tuning

More fun for BMW and MINI.

Manhart Racing has been building, re-building, and modifying BMW engines for quite some time. The German company had been able to achieve great success with the M-models from the BMW family, but have decided to shift their focus to the diesel-powered vehicles in the BMW and MINI lineups.

Manhart Racing wants the full range of MINI and BMW diesel models to be as much fun to drive as their gasoline counterparts. So, every oil-burner from the BMW 116d to the triple-turbocharged X5, X6 and 5-Series diesels has been given a bump in power thanks to a new Manhart Racing software module.

Manhart Racing Diesel Tuning

Our pick of the litter would have to be the M550d tune that sees an increase to 417 bhp and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft.) of torque. That should offer some oil-burning fun with a pretty dynamic chassis.
