Dinan puts a sticker on the door jam next to where the dealer would plug in the GT1 that says before doing and reprogramming call Dinan to verify the software version to put BACK in the car when the dealer is done

Hmm...driver's side door? I didn't see anything on my car.
I have a half circle shaped sticker up where the door hinge is. It is important that you have it so that the dealer knows to reprogram the software when they change anything.
I don't have a camera in my office but maybe Roleez can take a pic for us.

begin to die around 5000-5500RPM or does it pull strong to redline?
Exacty, this is the question to do : stock 545i died at 5500 rpm . My remapped 545i now pull pretty strong to redline .

Maybe different for the 550 but my car does not die or stop accelerating at any rpm in any gear.
