You probably got Stage 1. As long as your happy though...
As I have the BMW performance software they did not have a tune for it and they were spoke to the guy doing the SW @ Giac in the US a few times during the SW being written. This included comfirming what mods I had and the map was written with all that considered. They did say I would not get quite the same map as one with DP's and as such the power would be less but I woul still get a decent increase over my current figures (346 BHP & 370 ft lbs) and driving it I can feel a very big difference and would hazzard a guess at it being around 385 BHP & 410 ft lbs.....but tomomorrow I will know for sure as they are doing the "after" dyno then and checking boost levels etc. My "Stock" map is the BMW performance SW too.
