.
Mods:

.
Wheels:

I had the Sprint Booster in my 530d before and after the remap (Wetterauer 218hp-260hp/500nm-580nm).
The effect is the same, because its all about the throttle response times. The remap does not change the throttle sensitivity.
You effectively still drive at the same speeds as before, however you do it all with much more control and with a more direct feeling. Its the equivalent of a sloppy steering and direct steering; both turn the wheel, but one is more precise and gives better control.
Hope that all makes sense

My Ride: 535d Sport Tourer - E34 M5 Race Car
You could try a BMW Motorsport Diesel Particle Filter for about 5,000 EURO ! Saw one last week that was going in a 120d race car - a work of art
