Who's had positive results from remapping their 435d/335d? Has anyone got the evolve remap? looks good value compared to some of the piggy back systems e.g. ACS.
Don't know anybody who's had a 35d done by Evolve but do know one or two who've had petrol cars re-mapped by them (N54 335i) and they were happy with the results! Think the Evolve map for the 35d is around £600 (so decent value) but perhaps Superchips are also worth considering? Similar results in terms of bhp and torque and £399 fitted according to their website.ratty6464 said:
I'll look into emaps. I'd be after something that is safe and doesn't smoke, rather than absolute maximum power and torque
Got a feeling the 8-speed auto has a maximum torque limit of 700Nm but a number of the remaps on offer go above that; I guess the theory is it doesn't matter unless you drive pretty hard but maybe something to bear in mind? Think at the customer's request people like DMS will tone-down their remap so the maximum torque figure doesn't exceed 700Nm but not sure if other tuners offer a similar facility....JNW1 said:

Is the 8 speed ZF box in my 50d the same as that in the 435d?

Yours has the 8HP75 IIRC the 75 standing for 750nm capacity, the 435d having the 70nm version there is a 900nm version used in cars like the RS6. If so, my car is already at 740NM from the factory and I understand it can be mapped if you fancy some more grunt
