It surprises me that a throttle body would make that much of a difference.
Also when I was looking for info a while back, it does not seem like there is really any real horsepower gain out of it. Most of the threads I read were from 3 series and they were saying 1-2hp. I know its a different engine entirely, but I don't think it will be much more. I'm sure there are threads out there for the N62 whether it be here or on the interwebs... when I was looking up on it I was looking on the M54.

To tell you the truth I was driving today in morning & car is working flawlessly.. Gear shifts smooth and all.. it pulls nice and strong.. its at 80k and being a 2006 it has a few years behind it... So I just dont want to be that guy that spends $2k for a tune and it messes the car up or does not do anything worth while... so just wondering if the throttle body for almost a grand and the $700 tune are worth it...
