PDS 8HP75 High Performance Billet Race Torque Converter - 22/60 Stator - AWD Fits 2015-2019 BMW X5M X6M
This PDS torque converter upgrades ZF 8HP75 transmissions in 2015-2019 BMW X5M (F85) and X6M (F86) AWD models with a billet race design for drag racing and track use. The 22/60 stator delivers 2200 RPM lock-up and up to 6000 RPM stall for quicker launches and better power handling under high torque from S63 V8 engines. Built to withstand 1000+ HP applications while reducing slippage and heat.
Key Features
- Billet Construction: Fully billet front cover piston and housing from high-strength aluminum and steel for extreme durability and resistance to flex under high loads
- 22/60 Stator Design: Multi-stage stator provides low 2200 RPM lock-up for street drivability and high 6000 RPM stall for race launches maximizing engine torque multiplication
- Furnace Brazed Impeller and Turbine: Welded fins prevent ballooning and separation at high RPM ensuring consistent fluid coupling and longevity
- Heavy Duty Components: Oversized bearings thrust washers and lock-up clutch handle 1000+ HP without failure supporting modified S63TU engines
- Precision Balanced: SFI certified balancing to 15.33 grams eliminates vibration for smooth operation and extended transmission life
