Hi everyone,

I recently bought an F11 535D LCI and although it is plenty fast for now, from reading around in forums it seems so easy (and safe?) to gain a significant amount of performance, that I have started looking about tuning options.

This thread is quite old, but I see that as a good thing as tuning options will have been tested thoroughly by now.

I would greatly appreciate some insight regarding the different options.

Reading this thread, the systems that seem to be more recommended are:

1. TDI Tuning
2. DT-UK
3. Spider (DieselTuning)

Can anyone recommend one over the others for any particular reasons?

Also I read in other threads/forums that ECU remaps, tend to be better. Is that still the case or have the aforementioned tuning boxes improved to the point that they are equally good?

Many thanks in advance!
