Regular, Pro 2 or Ultimate?
Hey everyone. Do you have a race chip tune installed? If so........
1. Which model do you have regular, pro2 or Ultimate? 2. Are you happy with it? 3. Have you had any fault codes? I'm thinking about getting one for my similar engined 535d as I'm sure others are. So let the survey begin. Thanks in advance.

Also look at these: http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1088491 I believe they are all interchangeable among the N57 engines. Some chip makers sell the same even for the 25d variant.
I have the same posted under the "general" bmw discussion forum of this site and it was "featured"...you may get more traction there (http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1088501) from non F15 owners. |

I have the Maxchip Pro. I am happy with it. Zero codes thrown. Doing some runs while running dash command, the SAV reached 354 HP and 490 torque. I'm not sure how accurate those numbers are, but I'm pleased since it was a fraction of the RC ultimate.

Julesandtrish , AFAIK, no error messages if you are on default settings.
I have sold a few of the Ultimates for the N57 diesel and I have got nothing but a good feedback on them.

Decided to get the regular race chip. Installed it today and WOW! I'm impressed. Left it at the default setting and no codes. Throttle response seems sharper as well. So far I'm glad I went this route. So far........

I got 2015 35d after trading in my 2011 X5 50 , I'm impressed with it's fuel economy , but feeling some lack of power of course , is it big difference in performance with Maxchip Pro ? How about fuel consumption ?

On our current X3, you can code for the SAV to start on ECO. I have not tried it on the X5. |
