I don't know if it's spam, but I thought we already established that you can't get any significant gains from any reprogramming and that anyone that says you can is clearly lying.

If you say so. Looking at their site it looks like their only getting an extra 12 hp and 12 ft-lbs of torque out of the 530i, but they want almost $700 for it. Call me crazy, but that's not a huge gain, and you're not going to feel that.

Edit: After looking over their site again, it appears that those numbers might be for the E39. If you've got any info on a 2004 530i I would like to see that.

Out of curiosity I went to the website. I noticed that the tuner didn't waste any time in offering a remapped ECU for the new 335 for an increase of 75 hp. Wow...

The gains for the 550i 4.8 V8, 15 hp and 32 torque is in line with what other tuners have claimed for the 545i. I'm still holding out nevertheless. Besides, the other tuners are offering the same results for half the price of this tuner.

I'm not going to do chiptuning unless it gives me at least 30hp and 30lb-ft or torque at the same RPM.
Let's say max power is at 360hp @ 6300 rpm, and 360lb-ft @3400 rpm, why do I care if it I can get 390hp @ 6600 rpm or so? I rarely rev that much. At 6300 rpm, it's the point where I do it almost every day, and rarely go beyond that. So, it looks like I'd never use that extra 30hp at all.
If max power is 390hp @ 6300 rpm, it's no brainer
