Hi there

Had a DMS'd 535 d before and was very happy with this car. Now, I have a 545 and I like it too. Now I'm considering an upgrade for it and there are many offers (Hartge, Hamann, SKN, etc). But I like the upgrades from DMS very much and I trust them. They would bring it very close to the performance of the 550.

Does anybody has an upgrade from DMS for his petrol car? Maybe for a 545 or 645? Or other petrol models?

I'm very grateful for any reply!

If you have a manual or an SMG, then I recommend the rear-end swap available from Dinan before a remap. Your car is already at least very close to the performance of a 550i. A properly working remap should put the 545i ahead of the 550i.

My favorite tranny, but darn, no rear-end change for a Step is available at least through Dinan.
