I'll check with Mike, but what I posted was a direct quote from his e-mail to me. It would make some sense to be offering a slightly lower discount on the cheaper products I guess. Still a ?116 saving in any case of course!

Yeah, I know. Autocar's published figures also do not match with the dyno results either. I think DMS were trying to not rub BMW up the wrong way with their results, but looks like Evo went ahead and published the actual figures, so cat is out of the bag...

Is the power gain for the 525d 25% for both bhp and torque? Could you also post the 535d dyno. And have you got a dyno for a 525d or 530d aswell?

Blimey E60525d - I don't have *anything* - I don't work for DMS you know, just thought I'd call them up and see if they'd offer us a discount! Where did you get 25% from for power and torque gain for 530d and 525d?

I'll ask for the information for you...

Oh, i thought DMS sent you the 535d dyno. Doesnt matter then.

By the way, how easy was it to persuade DMS to get the 25% discount? Just abit curious

I understand there is a 535d dyno plot - I've asked DMS if they can scan it so I can post it

I knew DMS had offered a 25% discount elsewhere in the past for group buys, so I just had to persuade them that E60 forum could have enough genuine members intersted in having their cars remapped to make offering a discount commercially viable. I've run a lot of group buys on on Audi TT Forum, so I'm used to having the discussion.

E60525d, you wouldn't be able to scan that or point us in the direction of an online version of the article??
It's not on the magazine's website

I have scanned them in jpeg format but the size in Mb is quite big. Can i convert them to a different format to make the mb smaller?
