Bump for r33_RGSport and Violator they are great guys!! They helped me with the install of the GTS, stupid C plug. Glad you were able to figure it out Op. I noticed my MPH is about 2 MPH's off, not a huge deal, just something I noticed.

Speedometer being 2 mph off is normal for BMWs.

If I set my cruise control at 80 mph, I know 100% of the time I am actually driving at 78 mph.

In fact as I get closer to the governor, it can be 3-4 mph off.

Ok cool, I thought it was due to mppk + rc gts.

I'm glad Ben helped you diagnose it. I'm about to purchase the RC GTS Black w/ app control and was starting to get worried.

Ben is great! Really helpful and knowledgeable. He's on all the time. Responds in a timely manner during business hours, at home, and even while on his family vacation. I bought my charge pipe and my RC GTS from him.

Did you install charge pipe yourself? If not, care to get me an estimate on labor charges?

[Neuera09]

I did the install myself. It's not that hard. It took me an hour the first time and now bout 15 minutes. The install instructions is pretty detailed with photos.

Or while waiting for the wife to find a cute magnet to buy during vacation, haha.

Glad to know my wife isn't the only one that buys pointless stuff.

Hey Ben, I just watched a vlog about the RC GTS with the XLR. The vlogger was testing it on a white 5 series sedan with MSport package. He gave ur shop props. Was that your 5 series he's driving up and down a SoCal Canyon?
