theoreticly with 3L diesel you can reach the sky but in practice if you want 290bhp you need else than a chip...


than the boost if you change too much damages the part.filter etc. I think the healthy one is between 250-260-70, we have some modded here.

Mine is the opposite for the moment... 210bhp to pay less ... than it will be 580Nm and 255bhp-260, but I prefer the tourque than the hp.

I'd be suspicious of figures that high! You should be looking at around 260PS tops.

Have a look here for a renowned company DMS

Yeah right! Don't they all include that?
If bmw really wants to find out and dig for software mods they will find out for sure.

Indeed - but if BMW do find out my belief is that DMS will cover any 'warranty' claims instead... (SO you're not totally stuck)

BMW will always detect it, search the forum, if you push all the way in the stick at the speedo you see a trinagle! Our car is reduced to 210bhp by BMW AG in the factory, to get less tax here.... I pushed it and it is there... then in the service when they put your key in the blue-box they can see if you floored it or trapped your window,

BUT this is normally by new cars, and it is true that aftermarket tuners provide normally additional guarantee after remapping. Be aware that the guarantee covers all parts, turbo, common rail, etc.
ohh once your sw is updated the programe is rewrote so the best companies install it again for free...
GO FOR IT!!!
