I have read a lot about chiptuning.
What about 520d? I saw that this can not be seen? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it. Is this trustable? some references in the region of Belgium...

There is Street Racing Technology who sell tuning Box, +30cv, 50 NM, on original connectors. Mounting take 5 minutes. The result is surprising, this tuning box respect BMW tol?rance, so you can have any engine problems. This factory is not so far from Tournai and the phone number is 069.22.21.90.

Sorry, i want to say no engine problems. This is the third one that i install on my BMW, 318 TDS, 330D and now 535D. More torque, more horse power, less consumption and no engine problems, easy to install, no detectable. It's what you need on a 520d because 163hp is not enough for the weight. After modify you'are better than a 525d.

The price is 760?, they can install it or you can do it yourself with a clear instruction delivered with the tuning box. It work only on electronic, it stretch out injection time and increase diesel flow. Don't work on supercharger pressure that could break it. The installation take 5 minutes with the original connectors. It connect on pressure sensor on the common rail. 5 years warranty.

Be carefull with low price product. No warrenty, bad quality product, assembly. Respect of manufacturer tol?rance to avoid any problem.
A good product is equiped with original connectors, which allow an easy installation. Most of good power box cost 500 -600 ? with more than 30HP for a 520D, more again for 525d +35HP 60nm, 40 HP 70nm for 530d, 50 hp 80 nm for 535d.
A good adresse in Belgium: Street Racing Technology: t?l/fax 0032 (0)69-22-21-90 and the mail streetracingtechnology@tele2.be
