Thanks for the info! And you're right about the increase, I was using the base 163hp (here in Belgium) in stead of the original 177hp when calculating the numbers.

535D Sport

Have a look at this web site HERE. I used one on my 330dse,must say it was outstanding!

I see 530d but no 53i's. Does that mean it will only work on a diesel engine?

wow.... 220 hp... gotta get this... can I get it to Portugal ?? my E61 it?s going to be my E61 christmas present...... and one of mine too
How much does this DMS chip for the 525d cost ?

Yes this dose mean it only works on diesels.Have a lookHERE for tuning petrol engines.It's a UK web site but it will give you some idea what you can get for you car.It is much more expensive to tune petrol engines than diesel,you would properly pay two to three times the amount a diesel owner would pay for the same increase in power

.. I really want that chip... the 205 hp chip would be good too.. is anyone sure about this ? can?t I get one of them to portugal ?

525DTouring - Why don't you take a roadtrip to Belgium? I just verified the 205 hp upgrade and will consider doing it in the next few weeks. You can find more information about the company here: autotuneheinz. Please remember that they do not put a new chip in your car, they however reprogram the existing one. Labor will be something like 3 to 4 hours and you will get a certificate about the upgraded performance (measured by testing the car on a performance bench - I just hope this is the right word). Price would be 850 EUR excl. 21% VAT.

It is probably a silly question but why BMW doesn't sell their cars with that extra power and need to lunch the new 535d to achive that performance. I do like powerfull machines but I had to be counscious about what one have to pay for a car. And that part of me tells me it isn't probably a good idea to change the specs of the engine and have problems later on.
