Hey everyone ive just got myself a bmw 3.0 E53 and absolutely love it, I was recommended by a friend to use this site for any info and advice so just thought ide pop on and say hi.
I do have a few questions about the car, is it possible or even advisable to have my x5 chipped, be it for better economy or performance, any recommendations or advice appreciated. thanks guys.

Hello & Welcome.

The person to ask about getting your car remapped (much better than 'chipping') is our Jason@bwchiptune.  If you talk to him, he'll be able to talk you through the remap options depending upon what you would like to gain.....and it will be tailored to you existing car, not a 'one size fits all' plug in device.

Hi and welcome, your friend has advised you well.  This site has some very good advisors and banter by the bucket loads, above all it's a friendly site where you will hopefully feel very welcome.
