I can't imagine that you would be disappointed

I fitted a SteinBauer tuning box to my 520d 12000 miles ago which is adjustable upto 196bhp. It makes a world of difference to mid range acceleration. Watch the fuel economy though. Under normal driving there is a small improvement but if you use the extra power then it will use more fuel. DMS remap will have the same effect

Sounds great, but how many pennies does it cost?

To a forum member, they are quoting ?750 inc VAT (for a 535d at least...).... If you visit them at Andover that is. More if you don't. Equates to 25% off if you're a forum member (and go to DMD is Andover) or 10% off if a forum member and they have to visite you.

Takes about 90 minutes.

Thanks ABC

I assume that for the 535d this is ?1000 minus a 25% discount.

It might be that the DMS price for the 520d is cheaper still - to attract the non-performance freaks in cheaper cars!

Can anyone confirm the DMS price for a 520d?
