They also provided me with a dyno graph

The price is 2400 fully installed and apparently they need the ECU overnight.
20KW ATW is an improvement you can expect to see with turbocharged cars, I would think that highly tuned naturally aspirated engine would not have that much head room.
I think they are being a bit too enthusiastic with their claims and $2400 is a joke ( I was offered the same thing for $1200)

150KW ATW shown on the dyno graph equals 216KW at the crank?! That is 31 % drivetrain loss which would be about right if your car was AWD.


If I had $2400 to spend on improving 130i I would fit quaife diff.
