I personally would go with BMS tune, its cheap and lots of people run it with no issues. Easy to install and take off if needed to take it to the dealer.
I have it on my N63 and runs good.

Best of all can be a very subjective term. When it comes to BMW warranty, any tune is detectable, being it re flash or a piggy back. Some people prefer the PiggyBacks as they are very cheap, though you do get what you pay for. Overall reliability and drive-ability are the territory of a proper reflash.
On your list, every other option you have listed is a Piggy-Back. On that list, we are the only ones that offer an actual software re-flash. The ESS reflash you listed is not for N63tu, its for E70 N63.
If you do decide with a reflash, check around and see what others are offering. We have options that no one else has such as M-Boot, Sport Display Calibration, Turbo and waste gate remapping, 3.5 bar sensor support for high HP guys and so much more. If you have any questions, give us a call or send us an email. We will be happy to assist.

Tried jb plus, ess etronic tuner, racechip ultimate.
For some reason these tunes don't work that great with 6 series n63tu dme.
Have sent my dme for flash tune to ess tuning should be getting them back tomorrow. Will test and post.
If I am not happy then I am moving to m5.

Every tune has its pros and cons, i dont think one can be the best for every user.


JB is the most popular, it is also the cheapest and gives you more flexibility than any other option out there.

If you want max power, you need to use JB4 + Flash

I would just do the flash tune only and call it a day. No need to add a piggy back, you will be happy with just the flash.
