BMW won't make a transmission that only have 10% margin of failure. Because with CP itself, there is about 5% increase of horsepower to the transmission. I would worry about the drive shaft first before the transmission. I have seem a few with aggressive tune and R compound tires, twisted that drive shaft like a tooth pick.

I had the ZF on 4 tuned cars prior (2 Audi, Bentley, Jag) with no issues and they had ECU tunes with higher more risky gains.

I like to think equate hp/tq gains to dollars spent, at times and the RC is one of the better SAFE bangs for the buck.

Well, my 1200 mile service appointment isn't until the 20th. Guess I'm going to put the RC in until then

Harness wise, I just checked, no where I can find anything saying "Made In China". Maybe the copper on the wire strand itself came from China?

Has anyone tried the throttle tuning RC offers. I used to use a Sprintbooster on my R8 V10 and I liked the improvement it made in throttle response.

It is a nice product. Make it more fun to drive. But on M car, you can set it up individually, isn't it? Besides I don't want to break your car or your bank.

OP - can you give us the data on the jb4 vs. race chip WHEEL torque and hp gains. 91 octane (or 92 if you don't have 91 data). I'm trying to understand which is putting down better numbers.

Besides, I will need to borrow your car to do the dyno for comparison.
