Does anyone have the TIS for the ECU removal?

I am planning to take the ECU with me to Germany for a remap ...

The ECU is on the left hand side under microfilter on the left hand side.
You need to remove microfilter cover, microfiter, pan, and you'll find ECU underneath.
Maybe Rudy is busy looking for the info for you.

Cheez, even M5 is not enough. What will be HP/torque after remapping?

Fred,

Thanks for the info.

The turners claim about +8/10% gain. Let's see what will be really only after the dino results ...

I don't have TIS info for the M5 so don't stay up all night waiting for me to come through...

Hi Rudy,

It's just the same location as non-M5 E60, but there might be more connectors to disconnect. You can give Alex the non-M5 version as a reference.
