My current X5 35d M-Sport has 600nm and I have been offered a re-chip to 680nm but declined.

The new M50d arrives in Brisbane this weekend, takes about 10 days to clear pre-delievery. Then my dealer has to install all the goodies I have for it, so about another 2 weeks and it should be ready for pickup.
I have a new 2012 (got it last week), and it is not a matter of "need" but "want" for the "chip". I have seen some "interface boxes" for sale that connect under the hood and increase power. Was wondering if anyone on this forum has used them.
