Racechip ECU Upgrade for 520D
Hi
Has anyone installed one of these Chips for Racechip? they have 2 models but basic one cost 129Euros so very cheap but gives 232PS from standard 184PS 27% increase. Haven't got my car yet due 7th Sept F10 520d SE, but also wondered if you should let engine run in first? looks to good to be true. http://www.racechip.de/racechip-chiptuning/BMW-5er-F10-520d-3838-r.html?xPrioS=a0fr1gkclk1kic12ehuulr4186[/URL] |

If it looks too good to be true it probably is. It's a diesel box - all of them fool the ECU into providing more fuel... Re the real increase in mileage, kW, HP and torque - most of these boxes don't reach their stated benefits - but you have to measure with a dyno for that.
