+87bhp / +70 ft-lbs
Just got this email from Turner Motorsports. Looks like they are getting into the game with a piggy back tune as well.

Why is this so much more than BMS?

Interesting. But, not so sure about that price.

How can BMS produce/sell the same thing for a fraction of the price?
Are there any material differences between the BMS, Turner and Dinan piggy-back tunes?

As everyone has said w/ Dinan you are paying for the name, r&d budget, EPA certs, and peace of mind with a warranty. BMS adjust the boost similar to Dinan at a much lower cost. BMS is the best $vs power add on for the m5 and has proven reliable by many board members. Don't have a clue about the Turner.

In terms of a failure rate for the BMS we know neither the numerator nor the denominator. We also don't know the source (in most cases) or quality of the information. |

It's too bad they charge so much for a little software work. I would think 800-1000 is reasonable.
