Best Possible way to add performance to 2018 530i (G30)
Hey all ,
I recently purchased a 2018 Bmw 530i. I'll be taking delivery of it next Saturday. So I'm aware the the 530i isn't the most fun to drive or powerful bmw out there compared to the 540i or 550i. What would be the best possible option to add performance to to this I'm talking in terms of horsepower and torque. Would you guys recommend piggyback chips if so pls list some possible options down below. Other options would be appreciated too. Thank You

I can't find any reference to any bmw power kits for the 530i so that doesn't look like an option , but worth checking in case there is something new possibly. If there was the advantage would be that it would not impact your warranty.
No idea about third party options , others here will chip (excuse the pun!) in |

I haven't sold much of RaceChip to B46/B48 engine, but I have one customer with G01 X3 sDrive30i that I installed in house. She has been happy with it and no CEL at all. I have sold a lot of RaceChip to F15/F16 X5/X6 35i, 35d, 50i, F85/F86 X5M/X6M, F90 M5, G30 540, G01 M40i, and some other BMW and brands. Edit: And I personally been using it on my G30 540i for almost 2 years now.

I've recently installed the JB4 on mine and I'm playing around with the different map settings to see which one I like best. There is a noticeable difference in the way the car feels. It's most apparent in comfort mode, makes it feel like it's in Sports mode and even the ecopro mode feels more responsive. |

What can I tell you, I'm not. Just a guy who, if I appreciate a good product car-related or not, sometimes takes the time to review it and share my thoughts in an informative way. Especially when it's a forum of like-minded enthusiasts.
Anyways, I'll post a couple of photos in the "worldwide members..." thread tomorrow. Come to think of it, I think I did post a couple back in march. It's a black sapphire. |
