ECU Tune

Black Market - It is good to hear that you are happy with the tune and it feels more powerful. What I am understanding, from all of the info I have read, speaking to the tuners out there (GTHaus included), it seems that this is shaping up to be a tuning market with 3 different levels of power/tweaking (similar to the E60 M). A basic canned tune with a flash OBD access, an optimized tune by guys like Noelle Motors, IND/AMS, and PP Performance, and an optimized tune with additional power adders (tweaked/replacement turbos, catless exhaust, maybe nitrous, and other tweaks). It is pretty early in the mod game but, I think it is safe to say that all of the tunes will be testing the limits of the warranty.

Personally, I don't want to look at any Merc, Shelby, or other taillights unless the other car is heavily modded. I want the appearance, exhaust sound, reliability of a close-to-stock M5 as possible but be able to turn-up-the-wick when needed.
