Um I did not buy it recently, I got it like 2 years ago when I first had a 535I sedan. I had it and several other "parts" left over after the buyback.

If I get it, I'll route the button into the panel where the PDC button is and the heated seats etc - would be the perfect place for it 
Really cool, glad to see the v2 is making it into the cars already. Looking forward to the review
On a separate note, I'm looking at the Powerbox applications on modbargains' site and apparently there is no application for the 530i/530Xi N52
Really? Fits an E90 330Xi, but not the E60 530Xi with the same engine basically - what gives?

Its funny you started this thread because mine just arrived yesterday...v2 from Brav auto got 15 percent off on it not bad. I tons of people here have them so i did my research went for the new version. I think you are going to like it. Here is my take on it.
Installed (The only problem was that there was no where to hide the thing because the hole where the oem wire goes into was too small. So i hid it behind the pedal housing for now. Going to make a small slit in the carpet where the oem wire comes out and slide the housing in there) MAKE SURE YOU WAIT 5 MINUTES WITH THE DOOR OPEN BEFORE INSTALLING TO AVOID CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MESSAGE!!!!!!
Turned it on and was good to go!!! Honestly you can really notice the difference. 3 modes, off (no light), green (medium setting) red (aggressive). The difference between the green and the red setting is not super noticeable but from being off then on wow what a difference. She just gets up and goes!!! I guess the one downfall of this thing is that it does bring your mpg down considerably but who cares it feels great. Last night i went flying down Griffith Park Blvd mad late no cars around to test her out in DS WOW thats wild its a little overkill in DS mode pretty much just hits 6000 rpm as soon as u step on the gas. I love this thing.

My Ride: SOLD...Jet Black 2008 550i M Sport with SAT, black interior. RPI exhaust and air scoop, 35% huper optik tint all around, CF roundels, flat black kidneys, Springfield Armory XD-40 jet black in glove box, charcoal filter removed.
So if my google search was correct, the powerbox is not made for the 550i, or any V8 for that matter?
