    I just started sending back refunds a few hours ago, and still have many to send out.

    No worries, glad I got a response. I'm still curious what kind of gains I'll see in the NV and where, and I forgot to enter the coupon code in the paypal form. Those were really the only things I mentioned in the emails.

      I sent out refunds last night for all who ordered up to Jan 20, I'll send the last few out in a day or two, including yours. In the non vanos motor, the biggest torque gains are between 3000 and 5900 rpm. The peak hp gain is 18 hp @ 6400 rpm (15 ft-lbs of extra torque)

        Mark, I sent you an email last week on the differences in the 91 and 93 octane chips. I put an order in for the 91 chip, but would probably like to change to the 93, if you haven't shipped yet.

            Whoa, very nice--looking forward to that :p. This was at the crank, I assume?

            Thanks again, I'm stoked.

              I'm excited to get rid of that "torque kick" at around 4200rpm.
              Anyone actually know why the ECUs were OEM mapped this way? My '94 Benz C280 I6 (a very similar motor to the BMWs) does the very same thing.

                      Mark, still waiting to hear back from you on my email / PM with some questions. I know you've been pretty busy the past couple weeks, and luckily my car is idle right now :)

                      Does anyone know if this chip work with all of the Motronic 1.3 DMEs (eg 173, 380, 524, 525, 526)? I mistakenly thought I had a 173 and just checked today to see it's a 525... :-/ I can't find very much information on the differences if any, just that there are different numbers with 173 seemingly being the most popular.

                          I finally got mine installed for my m20 and boy did it make a difference! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. Thanks Mark!

                              Recieved mine today, but I lost Mark's email.
                              So I'd like to thank Mark via this thread and I can recommend his services to everyone else!

                                got mine a couple of days ago...installed....at first didnt seem heaps different...but man oh man has it changed the lil M42.... I love it, definitely recommend. Mid range is HEAPS better and seems quite a lot zippier as a result.

                                Will be on the dyno soon for a back to back.
