5150 AutoSport VANOS Delete Kit, BMW S85
Currently on backorder, please note 6-8 week lead time. The 5150 AutoSport VANOS Elimination Kit for BMW S85 is a high-performance upgrade designed to remove the OEM VANOS system from the S85 engine, found in the BMW E60/E61 M5. This kit provides everything needed to lock the camshafts in a fixed position, bypass the VANOS control system, and allow the engine to operate without the variable camshaft timing feature. With this modification, camshaft timing becomes fully customizable to suit your racing or high-performance needs. Why Eliminate VANOS? Performance Tuning for Track and Race Builds High RPM Optimization: Vehicles prepared for track use can benefit from fixed camshaft timing, as it is more predictable and easier to fine-tune for peak performance at higher RPMs. Custom Camshaft Profiles: Some tuners opt for custom camshaft profiles that do not rely on variable cam timing, focusing on a specific power band for maximum output rather than a broad torque curve.
