Gone are the days of physical chips like I have in my M5. Nowadays it's a software programmer that usually goes through the OBDII port. HP gains can be seen all over the board, BMW never really see huge gains, if anything from 5-20, it really just depends on the whole setup. I still suggest Powerchips since they tune it based on your mods instead of a generic one-size-fits-all kind of tune most others do.
