xHP transmission tune on my M240i xDrive?

Guys,
I'm currently running bm3 91 stage 1 for the engine.
I'm thinking about getting xHP stage 2/3 transmission tune to take the performance further.
Has anyone tried xHP tune here? If so can you please share your impression using it?

I'm running xhp stage 2 on a bone stock 2017 m240i xdrive. Running really good. Shifts in sport are dct level quick both upshifting and downshifting. Retains comfort and eco mode smoothness. 3000km no problems. I put mhd stage 1 last week and here is where is starts to show it's advantages. In sport is gets noticeably more aggressive and eco and comfort you can tell are getting a bit more aggressive and slightly on downshifts can be slightly jerky. May require some fine tuning/customization but you will get used to it and change in how you put your foot down to the throttle to manage it.

I've been using it since the day it was released. They keep adding new features and adjustability but I say it's worth it even if you never dive into all of that. If you ever plan on pushing more power it's pretty much mandatory as the trans will interfere and cut power.

I'm running stage 2 e30 BM3 with xHP stage 3. XHP was worth it in my opinion. Better shifting and response.

running XHP stage 3 tune with my MHD Stage 2+ E30 tune. At that power it becomes necessary, most OTS maps trick the TCU once you tune. XHP is the only accurate TCU tune that will also ensure longterm longevity of your transmission if you're modding the engine.

The M-throttle blips during downshifts is pretty cool, also the speed in which the downshifts and upshifts occur is very nice.

BM3 93oct Stage 2 here.
Installed the xHP stage 3 about 2 weeks ago.
Overall I like it.
Comfort - still comfortable, but I love that it shows "D" next to the gears on the dash.
Sport - overall is meh. Shift times are a bit better, but I think the paddle-to-shift time could be improved honestly.
Sport + - This is where the excitement is. Much better shift times, much faster response paddles. It's so fun that instead of driving in sport mode, that I've started driving in sports + often.

Does it allow you to adjust shifts from 7k rpm to say 6200rpm? If so, do you get that at stage 1?
