Funny, I was just saying that you must have your own tune on another forum...

So do you have something for the X5d since that was the original point of this thread? DO you have something for the N54/N55 crowd, that no one else is aware of? I'm not being sarcastic, I'm actually curious to know what you offer... And why you don't advertise (or do you, and we all just don't know about it?).

Read this :

I knew that from his FIRST post on this thread. That's why I knew what his motives were.

Yes I do offer custom tunes for the X5 to tailor the needs of customers. I would prefer not to go any further into details with my offerings as this thread is about another companies product and I am not hijacking it for my product

I am in doubts with going ahead with the vendors status as there is way too many biased dishonest members here so I guess it could be pointless unless the admin team steps in and puts some control over these name-calling biased members on here

The only one posting worthless junk is you! And everyone here can see it!
All my posts have been factual. Tested and proven results have been had with these piggybacks the proof is just a click away. REASERCH you should try it some time

In the end, it' is the consumer who has to make the decision as to what they are or are not willing to do to get an increase in performance. Personally I don't care how it does it as long as it does it. But you can't lump ALL piggyback systems into the same catergory. Look at the BMS JB4 and Vishnu Procede V4/V5. Yes these systems are piggybacks, yes they have resistors and connections to various sensors that trick the ECU into seeing something other than what it really is seeing, but these systems also have integrated CANbus interfaces which is a game changer... These aren't your back in the day systems. Until you actually try one of these two piggyback systems, you can't really lump them all into one category.

I'm no expert, but this is similiar to what experience computer users / techies have been doing to their computers for years, OVERCLOCKING their CPU's. Intels new i3/i5/i7 processors have this new fangled turbo boost (overclocking essentially) already built into the chips. It's essentially the same thing as what these piggies are doing, they are OVERCLOCKING the ECU... Yes it will have negative affects over time, but it might take years before you will see any ill affects. (unless your stupid and you run 21psi of boost knowing you don't have upgraded turbo's to handle it, and various other supporting mods.)

I am on many other forums, and a jackhole like you gets called out for what you are. The day you become a vendor on this forum is the last time I log on. Thanks for the infomercial. Are you going to tell me that if I order in the next 10 minutes I get 2 tunes for the price of 1, just add shipping and processing ? Thanks for proving what I was saying all along. You're not here to provide an alternative point of view. You are here to promote your product by degrading someone else's. Keep pushing for your vendor status. One less site I will visit.

Yup. I'm sure you'll have people lining up to send money overseas and wait for some guy in a barn, to send them back a tune to run in their $70k vehicles. Someone with zero reputation, no track record. Only a history of bashing piggyback tunes. Yeah. You're on your way to financial independence !

Oh, Aidan is a competitive vendor? Now his statements make sense. LOL!

The JBD retails for $279 and the customer can install/remove in seconds without visiting a tuner shop. The difference vs. stock is really night and day. What do you charge for your flash tuning? And how much time does the customer have to sit around while you upload and download maps on the car? And then for warranty work to go back to stock again? I do flash tuning as well and it can work quite well when done right. But it is a much more expensive option in the case of the X5D/335D. And in general has advantages and drawbacks vs. piggyback tuning.

Here are a couple videos of our JB4 gasoline piggyback system which retails for $529. Can your flash tuning do any of this?





Any a dyno charts on pump gas vs. stock tuning...
