Has any looked into product such as Vishnu's PROcede? and or Eurobahns Turbo Tuner? which have been used on the 335i with positive results?

I contacted Vishnu and Eurobahn..

I have received a response from Eurobahn syaing that their Turbo Tuner will work for the 535I application But have not heard back from Vishnu.

Does anyone know of any other tuner that would work?



Also It has been a debate over on other boards about ppl putting blow off valves (BOV) on their 335I. Some ppl like it some hate is.

What are your thoughts?

I for one luv the BOV's...but I dont think I could ever put it on my 535I. Seems like an odd fit..LOL!

(on a side note what does LCI stand for?)

I believe that Shiv has stated that the PROcede will work on the 535i. Last I heard he was looking for a beta 535i to test with the PROcede. I'm not sure if he found anyone as a test mule. As for other tuners, there is RDSport with their Black Box Xcede and Active Autowerke with their Xcede.

Don't get the BOV. It wouldn't sound right coming from a stock looking 535i unless there was some major mods done to complement the BOV.

+1 i agree with that. i do love the sound of a blow-off valve, but i would kind of be wierded out if i heard one on a bimmer unless it "looks like it really has one."

The latest I've seen regarding Vishnu and the 535 is in this thread: Shiv's post on e90post. Apparently the PROcede is ready to go with v1.47. The teasers have indicated that v2 could add another 40hp/25tq over v1.47, and is being beta tested on 335's right now.
