Description: VF Engineering Stage 1 Supercharger 6.0psi BMW E39 M5 00-03 VF-Engineering chose to supercharge the BMW E39 M5 to create an omnipotently powerful, mild mannered daily driver. With VF's approach to simplicity in design and thorough testing, this kit would be the ultimate bolt-on product for an M5. Reaching considerable cult status the M5 is a true Bavarian thoroughbred. Combined with the Vortech V2 supercharger and air/water chargecooler system this 5.0 liter V8 really gets to breathe through its 8 individual M-engineered throttle body nostrils when you race through its 6 gears deep into the red. The VF supercharger upgrade is for the discerning enthusiast who demands raw, streetable power. The prototype vehicle and supercharger spec funtion on otherwise stock components (headers, exhaust etc). Upgraded brakes are currently the only mandatory item. Despite having around 600hp, VF did not detract in any way from the design goals of the M5's heritage and in doing so, have meticulously been tuning and testing the M5 to a level where it remains a daily driver with stock feel and quality. Testing and R&D remains underway on the in-house test car and this page will be updated as progress is made. Maintaining the the original BMW quality, smoothness and reliability were the key factors in the VF design. This is where the GIAC software comes into full play. VF have harnessed reliability of Vortech superchargers and quality of GIAC custom software with their 10 years of supercharging experience and worldwide OEM supply contacts to create the ultimate supercharger system for the ultimate drivers car. All key components are 100% made in California. This system has been fully road tested and dyno tuned on both the GIAC Mustang MD500AWD and in-house Dynojet 224XLC dynamometers with and without engine load. All stage 1 kits are setup at 6 psi and create as much, if not more power than similar products running greater levels of boost. VF engineers spent over 12 months software testing the BMW Bosch and Siemens ECUs. Software flash technology and latest BMW file versions have all been employed to provide the cleanest and most reliable method of software installation. GIAC engineers extensively re-wrote the ECU software using their own binary, assembly and disassembly algorithms written from scratch. Testing the software included extensive road and dyno test cycles, with acceleration and deceleration tests for driveability smoothness and ECU fuel management. All test cars were put through long term full throttle testing in conditions varying from wet cold climates to hot dry Arizona desert temperature for safe-optimal air fuel ratios and knock activity monitoring. Competantly written ECU software has allowed VF to fully explore the potential of the BMW engine making over 40% more power in most applications. VF chose to mount the Vortech supercharger with an in-house CNC machined aluminum bracket system. The unit is positioned in line with a bolt-on crank pulley with an additional active OEM tensioner using a dedicated serpentine belt. The key to reliable superchargers sytems is the the active belt tensioner which eliminates belt slip. The supercharger air ducts are custom molded in-house from plastic to give an OEM appearance, quality and fit. The incorporated Bosch boost overrun system is designed for smooth off-throttle cruising and deceleration with clean emmissions. The crankcase ventillation sytem is designed to cope with positive pressure and high flow OEM injectors are supplied to fit as direct replacements without modification to the injector rail. A removeable plastic air box is provided with the K&N induction filter for those who use their vechicles in persistently wet climates.The VF supercharger system remains fully OBD2 compliant and is supported by a 3 year unlimited mileage warranty on the product only. Installation can be performed in approximately 8 hours and is non-intrusive allowing it to be fully reversible. Every aspect of this kit has been fully engineered for high quality fitment and highly demanding performance and expectation. VF's in-house horizontal, turning and milling CNC's and plastic molding plant, GIAC's industry reputation and track record and Vortech's reliability have been fully exploited to create a product with internationally un-rivalled material technology, quality and performance. Not all vehicles respond identically to engine modifications which is why it is important to consider the "delta" or relative power increase measured on the same dyno before and after modification. Power gains shown by VF have been found to be accurate on test vehicles on 91 octane at sea level, with stock setups (ie throttle body, exhaust system etc). The GIAC software adapts just as the OEM software and a slight increase in performance may be expected from the use of higher quality fuels such as 93 octane. Power gains may vary according to factors such as altitude or vehicle condition.
