RaceChips performance chips

Does anyone have experience with this product on their F80/82? They had a booth at Bimmerfest and their product caught my attention (GST Black). Link below...if anyone has a review of the product, I would greatly appreciate it. I searched and couldn't find anything on the forum.

My suggestion to you is to consider a flash tune like bootmod3 over any "race chip" bs they are trying to push on you. There's a reason why you couldn't find anything on the forum...

Racechip is fairly popular on the F15 forum, although many of us have switched to BM3. I don’t see too much about RC posted on this forum.

If you want to say bye bye to warranty, you may as well go for a flash obd tune which is superior to a piggyback in almost every way.

More power - less fuel?

Classic piggy back marketing BS.
