If you think about it, it is about 20% more power, so when you floor it, you can really feel the difference, i would deffo recommend a tuning box even just for price, if you want serious power though id go for an remap!

asa ca: nu vreau resoftare, deja ma doare capul pt ca am facut la contempo up-date-ul de soft si am avut probleme.acum le-am rezolvat si nu mai vreau sa umble NIMENI la soft.Daca ai chef arunca un ochi la www.race-chip.com, sa vezi ce face la 530d.am vb cu ei si l-au recomandat cu argumente pe race chip pro.
ideea este ca remapul la ecu nu are treaba cu softul masinii. cand softezi masina o softezi pentru alte treburi, nu numai pentru motor. eu am facut remap la... c&c tuning parca, a mers brici, nici o eroare, nici o problema. majoritatea care avem ceva facut la diesel avem soft, nu power box. diferenta este masiva si se simte imediat. nu trebuie sa o cauti si nu este placebo. chiar ai mai multa putere. de asemenea, considera sa-ti cumperi un sprint booster.

I'm also interested in Race-chip as well, their add sometimes is displayed at the bottom of the page, they claim to increase the 520d's torque to 421nm with the Pro edition, but it's 229euro.

I found anther company called Ewo that sells one for 89euro and increase torque on the 520d to 401nm.
I had one on my Mazda 3 and it worked fairly well. Others say chips work better on diesels.

Anyone used either of these particular chips?
