Here's my new-to-me CPO '14 50i MSport. So far, I'm in love, except that I can't get the damn 20 way seat just right. The thing is a BEAST. Black or CF mirror caps are my next mission and eventually 21 or 22" wheels.

If you think it's a beast now, slap on a Race Chip Ultimate. |

Thanks! That's on the to-do list too. At the risk of derailing this thread, I was actually considering the BMS/Burger Stage 1 tune due to the ease of install/removal. Any thoughts on the comparison between that and RaceChip?

While Burger is easier to install/remove, more people are having better luck on the 50i with RC these days.

Why risk everything with just a benchflash. The proper way to do it is a dyno tune. Unfortunately, since not a lot of people are willing to pay for this type of services. A lot of businesses doesn't offer this anymore. Also, in a nutshell, flash tune will remove all of the security that will protect your engine from any mishap. While piggyback still rely on the stock ECU security protection. Quote:
RaceChip Ultimate have better quality product starting from harness, packaging, enclosure, and internals. Performance wise, both are about the same. Installation, the BMS is very easy, but the RaceChip includes a dummy plug where you can use it to bypass the module. So, once you have it installed, it is as easy as removing the module and use the dummy plug to bypass.

I agree tho, that for a customer looking for an easy plug-n-play solution AND easier way to comply with dealer warranty by simply removing piggybacks - they are worth considering definitely. I think from 10 owners (from the ones that will even consider doing a tune) maybe only 1 will go to the extent of flashbench and 9 will do a piggyback - so everyone can get what they want and what suits them best at this time (for me it's reassurance that I can smoke almost any 50i (piggyback or not) and a lot of other cars, heck probably 99% of cars on the road) Cheers Last edited by DuSh; 08-10-2017 at 02:42 PM.. |

Yes, that one is beautiful. In fact it's so good, I'm suspecting good photoshoping skills. However, in any case that color suits x5 very well

Nice, where'd you buy them? Looked at their website for a distributor but nothing came up. Thanks
