What you have there are marketing numbers, and there is no reference to cost. BMW is known for under-rating, and the performance claims do not match the hp claims. And BMW's performance claims are always very conservative.

So if marketing hype = facts, then yes you do have a few. But what about actual gains? What about the "area under the curve"? (All that is listed is peak values.) What about independently tested performance gains? We know none of that.

So, I withdraw "no facts whatsoever" and I apologize. What I should have said was "insufficient and unconfirmed information from a pre-production press release". That OK?


(I also want to point out that I already have my tune and am happy with it. I have no interest in defending or purchasing this "package". It is just a matter of basing opinions on fact rather that speculation, but then that's no fun, is it?)
