hello

just looking for some advice.

is the only way to remap a 64 plate 435d to remove the ECU? or are there some people that are doing OBD remapping?

also has anyone used Aaron Reeve Performace in Kings Lynn (UK)

cheers

No-one here in the US with the older M57 or newer N57/N47 (which also uses the same DDE) has been able to re-flash it while in the car. Ecotune up in Scotland may know - try calling them?

They seem to get good reviews. Racechip seems to be popular and has good reviews. JBd also seems ok and has been used in the USA/CA.

so i have been in touch with my local BMW specialist he says 370bhp 710nm ecu out jobbie. this is Aaron Reeve performance

i spoke to my mate who is big in the VW scene (R-Tech) and he has told me to go to More BHP. apparently the guy is the best for BMW Remapping and writes a lot of the files for germany tuners etc. but these are also saying 360bhp 700nm ecu out

racechip are quoting the bigger numbers and obviously is plug and play. i like the idea of it being switchable on a phone app if i go ultimate aswell.

just not sure i trust these boxes always have had my cars mapped properly
