My Ride: 2008 Silverstone II E60 M5 2012 E70 AW X5 50i Sport w/ LCI Aero Kit and Rocker Panels
I think I'm actually going with ESS for $795 for my M5. After talking to RPI about it further, ESS seems to be a better way to go...and much, much cheaper.

I'm going to be getting the tune on my car tomorrow morning when Jags arrives in D.C. I will report back on the differences I feel after getting the tune. Also, I have the K&N airfilter and rpi scoop on my car on the moment, and I was thinking about putting my old AFE CAI in to see if the singh tune will actually produce more gains with the more airflow. What do you guys think?

*UPDATE* Just got the tune done on my car,Jags is the man!!! It runs so smooth now and shifting feels silky smooth again, the power delivery is amazing. Jags told me the harder I push it now the better it will be down the road. I left the stock airbox and K&N filter in with RPI scoop, and I don't think I'll change it out to the AFE HAI. Thanks again Eurorev to recommending me to Singhautosport for my ecu needs, meeting Jags in person was a pleasure, and I will get the singh tunes on all my future cars!!!

Fellow NYC E60'ers take advantage of Jags ecu tuning while he is still there, believe me you won't regret it!!

It's amazing! Get it bro! I feel more power, smoother shifting, higher redline and top speed, and the car is losing traction like crazy! Jags is the man! I talked to him in person, love his british accent. He's your go to guy for ecu tunes, he was telling me stories about all the different exotics he tuned all over the world, this guy is no joke, my car feels like a different beast! One thing he told me to do was drive the car hard for about 100miles to let the ecu tune adapt to the aggressive driving. Also, he said that I should take out my sprint booster, I'm hesistating about taking out the SB anybody take theirs out after they got their tune?
