Best tune out for the 550i!?

Hey guys,
I'm picking up a 2012 550i with Dinan S2 on it this week and am having thoughts of swapping the tune out as many people here have been seeming to have issues with it not delivering as much power as they would like. While I'm sure it will be plenty of power to start I just want to get a feel from others with experience as to what their thoughts are on who has the best tune for this engine.
Mod bug's got me and I haven't even picked up the car

Thanks!

Hopefully more will be coming to market soon. I'm still looking as well and DINAN is just too $$ for any mods to the F10 550.
If you haven't gotten your car yet, trust me, it's going to rock your world unless you're coming down from an M5 or something lol. Just got mine late January. It's a sweetheart.

Wait on the tune. I got something in the works.
I'll have details in the upcoming week.

Picked up the car Wednesday and the dinan S2 is awesome! Way better and faster compared to the stock 550's I drove! But like I told someone on here if the gains are there for the right $ I might change it! Looking forward to seeing what ya have in the works!

Well I hope you guys are all happy, Ive been donating my car to everyone for all of us to have options.

BMS is a solid performance boost!

I just wanted a bit more, it will cost more, but you get what you pay for.

I'll have more details later.

But if your on a budget and want 60hp instantly = bms

If you want a more complex tune, with Transmission, Launch control adjustment, air/fuel, timing, power curve, Catless downpipes check light fix, and MUCH More. Wait for my update.
