it's a lot less drastic than it seems... this is a canned tune that is tested and tried and true with the N54 platform. So the tune itself is fine and will not cause detrimental issues. The 'learning' is simply the car taking in environmental variables, air temp, octane, engine temp etc and applying those measures to the tune to optimize it. So you can just plug this in and have no worries, after the car adapts the ECU (runs through the learning cycle) it could potentially make more power.
