Thanks! Yeah the S85 will always have a special place in my soul. Awesome engine is awesome, but the maintenance costs were starting to get ridiculous. I decided to make the move when she was still in peak condition than when she was broke down and limping.

Regarding their tune, they were one of the better ones for the e70 X5M market. They were also one of the only companies to continuously support the platform so their flash tune was a no-brainer for me. It was smooth, and pulled like a freight train in the mid range. Could not have been more impressed with it. 7 psi increase throughout the whole band really wakes up that suv.

Now for the M5 market I have not done enough research yet to come to a conclusion. Seems like flashing is available now so that will probably be the path I take. Having no cold start and cat check off will make getting an Eisenmann race and ams catted much more livable. That's my current plan anyway...
