OVERVIEW
Pure Turbos’ industry-leading S63tu upgrade for the F-Series BMW M platform — in Pure’s words, the only upgrade for these engines proven to produce substantial power gains. The turbos are built on the OEM housings.
Each unit receives a Pure Turbos billet compressor wheel, a larger and stronger turbine wheel and an upgraded bearing housing, and is VSR high-speed balanced. Pure engineered and proved the Stage 1 to support 750whp+ with the right supporting modifications and fuel.

TECH RESOURCES
Additional Parts Required
- A custom ECU tune is mandatory. Pure Turbos states: “DO NOT WIDE OPEN THROTTLE WITHOUT A PROPER TUNE.” Tune options we stock: MHD Super License for S63, bootmod3 S63TU tune
- New gaskets and O-rings. Pure Turbos: “Always, use new gaskets and O-rings (where applicable).” These are not supplied with the turbocharger.
- Core turbocharger(s) — either ship your factory units to Pure Turbos for the build, or select the refundable core-deposit option and return your cores afterwards. Remove all lines, fittings, actuators and accessories before shipping cores.
- Fueling headroom for the higher power targets: an E85 blend or race fuel, and upgraded fueling hardware. Pure’s published results at this power level were made on E30/E85 blends and race fuel.
Installation
- Pure Turbos installation, pre-lube and break-in procedure (manufacturer FAQ): pureturbos.com/faq — pre-lube the turbocharger through the oil inlet, spin the compressor wheel to coat the bearings, idle 5–10 minutes without revving, then drive on low boost/light throttle until the car is properly tuned
- Pure Turbos core return sheet (PDF): pure-turbos-core-return-sheet.pdf — print it, fill it in and include it with your core shipment
- Professional installation is strongly recommended; turbocharger removal and refitting requires the correct torque specs, clean oil and coolant feed lines and a full oil service.
Notes
- Pure Turbos does not publish an official part number for this upgrade and no SKU is recorded against this listing, so no PART NUMBER section is shown. Confirm the exact configuration with Speed Logic when ordering.
- The product title also references the E7x chassis, but Pure Turbos’ fitment data for this upgrade lists only the F-Series chassis shown above. Confirm E7x (X5 M / X6 M, E70/E71) fitment with Speed Logic before ordering.
