Yes I have just installed the Racechip ultimate on my wifes new X3 20d with very very noticeable gains !! I was So impressed I ordered the Ultimate tuning solution for my modified M135i ! I have played around with the settings a little today , Factory settings were set to E0- Im now testing F3 as per the stage 2 Performance settings and its absolutely amazing !! I can increase the power probably another 12% over the current state of tune 20% if I want , but I will leave it where it is at present. I will Max the settings out on my car when the box arrives !! Get on it !!

For the BMW M235i and M135i The performance increase of 16% is the recommended factory settings B1 on the Ultimate tuning module which delivers around 380HP.... I can tell you that with fine tuning you can get very close to 400hp no worries at all. especially with supporting mods !! so running a setting of say F1 will deliver another 6% increase as an example upping it to 22% increase which will deliver 390+ HP .

Nope doubt it will !! On the X3 20D I have given it a good old flogging today !! Way more than Wifey ever will so I pretty sure I will be keeping the F3 setting on that car !! She's pretty stoked !! Now for my Car !!
