I read your review on the .v2. Seems like it made a positive difference in all aspects of your car's performance. Have not heard anything from those w/ an M240i going from the .v1 to the .v2.

My .v1 performs great, just the odd CEL occasionally (that seems to clear itself over time). I was curious to hear from folks that went from the .v1 to the .v2 on their M240i. If they noticed a drop in acceleration with the reduced torque.
60+ lb ft at 2500 RPM is pretty huge on paper, but in a car that is putting down 395 lb ft at 2500 RPM (w/ the .v2) may not be as noticeable in real life as the paper numbers would indicate.

HP seems to always get the headline, but it's torque (IMO) low in the RPM range that gets noticed when you drive.
