I couldn't resist the temptation and finally gave in today. I haven't been able to find anyone who hasnt liked it so far and am fairly certain I will be happy with my purchase. Mike has installed this in a few 325's and he says it really transforms the car. It's the same engine as mine so hopefully I will have equally awesum results.
It's being shipped first class so hopefully it will be in my hands early next week

Please post or PM your experience. I have the same car as you and would consider a performance mod if it was worthwhile. Under 300 bucks is fairly inexpensive, so if it's night and day...maybe I'll jump on it as well. Are you installing yourself?

Yes it is sweet. And somehow over here, there was an update to increase the low end torque which makes it even sweeter. Feels much more awesome than before. I could never go back to the day before I got it.

Enjoy it after you put it in! I forgot to say.

I'm pretty sure the NA tune is much tamer but apparently the 325\525 respond really well compared to the 328\528. Time will tell

well, we pay a lot more than 300 =) after sales service matters alot especially with the continuous software update. But it makes more of a difference than SB. Good Luck and share your experience after you have done yours =)

I was very interested in something like this. Would love to know your experiences with it and how hard the install would be. Looks maybe a little more than I could handle looking at the instructions. Where did you get it from. I am very tempted by this little black box!!!!
