Litchfield M4 remaps

http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/BMW/bmw_m4/upgrades

Looks like a proper remap not a piggyback.

Highly doubt it, until someone actually provides evidence that they have cracked the ECU we'll continue to see 'tuning' or 'remapping' which is actually just a piggyback.

I contacted Litchfield and they said they are using a German tuning box but they are working on cracking the ECU.

Also said they thought a little more top-end power may be possible with full ECU waste-gate control.

So as I expected. Most piggyback's have EWG control, though I'm not sure what box they are using.
