muddy, so far i love the tune. the most notable feature is the sudden acceleration. i have an e53 4.4 that i used to think was pretty fast. my tuned e70 blows it away. i recently used a
G-timer to measure 0-60 and max HP. 0-60 came in at 4.6secs and max HP was 549. i dont know what those numbers would be on the stock 50i. since im in socal i had eas motorsports install the tune but i could have done it myself. its very easy. this video gives you an idea of the improved torque. each time you see the camera suddenly move back is because the g-forces knocked over the trip pod which was wedged and buckled into the front seat.
