I think FRANK970 just did Dinan mods to his '08 535i (including ECU). You might want to send him a note or contact Dinan to get confirmation of ECU tuning availability.

Hey Rob,
Purchase or lease - I have a 530 lease coming up in December. I always order since I opt for a 6 banger.
BMW has called me several times offering "deals" including picking up the last 3 lease payments, yadda, yadda.
Just wondering what kind of deal you worked out.
Thanxs

Would the SPRINT BOOSTER makes that much of a difference? and at what stage? Meaning at take off or all the time you would feel it? Also what happens to the fuel consumption with the SPRINT BOOSTER?

I am running JB1 on my 535i...works regardless of production date of your 535i. The performance increase is 100% noticeable when you press down on the throttle and install is VERY easy just 2 wires!

Welcome to the family Rob. The Dinan Remap and Sprint Booster are 2 great choices for your first mods. However, that's only the beginning. You have just introduced yourself to 20,000 members that are going to make you BROKE. But hey, at least your E60 will look HOT!
