As you know im going to get a remap for my 525d. Ive narrowed my choices between BBRGTI and West Tuning. The car has around 180bhp standard and 400nm.

BBRGTI = Increased to 215bhp and 520nm.
West Tuning = Increased to 220bhp and 465nm.

Both of them around ?450 and the remap is specifically designed for your car. Shall i go for the one with BBRGTI who offer more torque or West Tuning who offer more BHP?

Go for more torque. You'll probably never 'know' the extra 5 bhp until you race round Spa or somewhere.

For everyday UK driving and speed driving in Germany, I'm sure you'll make constant use of the extra torque.

There called Pentagon Glasstech. I got a quote about 3 months ago which included 2 6.5" widescreen screens, wireless headphones and a PS2, fully fitted for ?1200.

I saw a mer s-class they were doing and the screens in the headrest looked awesome. Very neatly installed.
