Anyone try this product? It's listed on ebay and they also have a website. The reason I ask is because someone on this forum pm'ed me about them asking if I would be interested in purchasing. Let me know what you guys think, I've never heard of it before.

I got the same PM, but wonder they adjust the O2 sensor only, how to make it work Hp +30%, fuel less 15%. No dyno test to prove?

I asked the guy that pm'ed me for more info, but no response yet. I'd be interested if it worked, because so far there hasn't really been anything available for the M54 engines.

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
Let's see, my car has 225HP - so 30% is 67.5HP, sorry, I call bullshit. The ESS tune is about 10-12HP, so is every other tune out there. These guys somehow managed to find another 57HP somewhere?

Seems like a scam to me, hasn't been the first time a company or website has sold a so called "tune" or "chip" advertising HP gains. When opened most of these items that claim HP gains contain resin/solder with a resistor inside. Save your money and get a proper tune.
