It depends. How much will you pay for it?

those look great! I hope you have someone cleaning them for you...

I would be interested the dyno results as well.... It's really not realistic to expect a 50HP gain from just a chip on a natually aspirated car.... maybe 15HP....

Who did say that it was 50 hp gain??

The 2005 E60 545i here has 333HP by factory. The UNICHIP increase about 12,8% more power.

Why do you put an ///M sticker on the wheel ?
Style 149 are not ///M wheels, right.

Does your car have the (lowered) sport suspension?

Do I understand that you've "chipped" the 545 engine to get 375bhp?? If so, can you provide details?
[snapback]116362[/snapback]
No, I my car didn't have the sport suspension yet!!

About the power increase I just have some discussion here to prove it. The unichip is an aditional module nd not only a "chip".

At the tune shop we could measure it. I just asked they a couple weeks ago to email me the dyno result. They didn't file it! I will book a new dyno test to print and save the results. After that I will post here.

You could check about UNICHIP at:

www.dastek.co.za

Interesting about the Unichip. Would you happen to have the part number? When you go to www.unichip.us (United States distributor) and enter the 545i, it shows the part is still under development, so it appears that you can not get it in the US?
