If so, what can you say about the results?

Cheers,
Based on my 535d remap, the results are stunning and very noticeable. I can't imagine you'd remap anything and not notice quite a difference TBH.

Which remap are you think of?

The more turbos and stock power you have, the more noticeable the remap...

I'm wondering if it's even worth the effort and money to remap a 520d seeing it doesn't have much stock power as is. Has anyone done a remap of a 520d and can you share your thoughts on this? (I've got one and have been thinking about this recently...)

My Ride: 535d Sport, carbon black, media pack, visibility pack, grey leather, heated seats, sun protection glass, voice control, Eibach ProKit, 19" 166 style wheels, e-maps ECU remap to 325hp and 640NM, top speed limiter removed

even the 2.0d makes a very fair jump in terms of hp and torque, well worth it, you'll be pleasantly surprised. (appr 35-40hp and 80NM of torque )

The only 520d that won't benefit is the new one with the 177hp engine, as the ECU uses new tricore processors and that one hasn't been cracked to remap, yet.

(edited, should have read 520d)

The only 530d that won't benefit is the new one with the 177hp engine, as the ECU uses new tricore processors and that one hasn't been cracked to remap, yet.

Cool, thanks for the info.
