My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny. 2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter. Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

I believe it. People always go by the numbers, but I've always asserted that it's not always the car, many times it's the driver.

people should buy the book "It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life," by Lance Armstrong. Sometimes, it's not about the car.

After all the other posts recently floating around here, good to see someone doing their racing on the track.

What 530d do you have (i.e. 218ps/231ps/235ps) and what has the remap taken it too?
Is it an Auto or Manual?

Even though there are some very rapid diesels out there now, I'm sure they're still a rare sight at a Drag strip

So thats from 175ps (173hp) to 247ps (244hp) -- those are very nice power gains I remapped my 2005 530d from 218ps to 260ps, and 500nm to 580nm

So you must be running an E39 530d and not an E60 530d, right?
