Since John@EuroRev will be at the Cerritos Pot Luck/M&G, will he be doing some ECU reflashing service also(Hint hint!)?
Now thats one good reason to attend, beside the free food (Balut anyone?)

Joe, the programmer Jesse can only do it in house at EuroRev. PM me if you are interested in the remap.

I did the Speed Innovation ECU tuning this morning at SonicMS.. I don?t have a technical write-up/feedback? but all I can say is WOW!! For my test drive after the remap, I took highway 237 from Mt. View towards Milpitas.. this was around 10:30am Sunday morning, so hardly any traffic? driving my 530i after the remap was BADASS? acceleration is faster and more aggressive.. I was able to get up to 105 mph with no troubles at all.. The acceleration from 80 mph past 100 mph is amazing.. I reached Sunnyvale off 237 in no time and zoomed back to Mt. View? grinning ear to ear ...I was SOLD!

I chilled at SonicMS for a few hours and it was good times like always!!? THANKS for doing this Speed Innovation special.. well worth it!! .. When I left for the day, I took highway 85 home back to San Jose, which is a longer route home for me, but I wanted take my re-born 530i out for another spin?

^ Lucky, Damn I wish mine could've gotten remapped! Do you have to drive harsh for the 2 weeks to break it in?

It was recommended to drive aggressive the next 200 miles or go through a tank of gas to break it in... They guy doing the ECU tuning was super friendly and gave lots of advice!

I can't wait to drive to work from South San Jose to Sunnyvale tomorrow morning. I'll probably take 85 North to 237 to Sunnyvale just to get some road time.. instead of my typical route taking Central Expressway from San Jose to Sunnyvale because the speed limit on Central Expressway is only 50 mph

I'll report back if the fuel consumption changes after the remap. I reset the MPG reader through the iDrive Car Data. I was at 18.6 MPG before the ECU tuning.
