US Tuners for 3.5d?
Any US tuners have a software tune for the 3.5d yet?

What does BMS stand for?

Anyone tried the Hamman chip? I read something like +60hp and +100tq. Not sure if it is designed for the US market though.

Burger Motor Sports. I currently run his piggyback in my 335i. The most powerful one out. Great customer service also. He's now working on a tune for the X5/335 diesels.
Evolve is out of the UK, and I believe they are working on something for US model diesels. They have one of the more powerful flashes out right now. The encryption on the ecu is different between the us and euro models thats why not too many US tuners have a solid flash or tune yet.

I contacted Hamman/Hartge and ACS and they do not sell their ECU upgrades in US. Their software is only made and tested for European cars. Its sad that there are no major US tuners for Bimmers. Dinan has couple of things, but nothing for newer X5.

If you have a BT Scanner, any codes thrown due to having a tune can be erased!!
