Chip Mods

Just curious if anyone has put an engine mod chip in their G02 X3 or X4.

If so, which manufacturer and are you happy with the results?

I'm thinking to get one, but haven't decided yet.

Cheers

I put a JB+ on mine. Not prepared to flash the ECU while still under warranty even though that's the best bang for the buck.

I was going to go with the Dinan for my B58, but they pulled it from the site. They couldn't generate sufficient power for the $.

The JB+ is only $200US and can be installed/uninstalled in a matter of minutes before any dealer visit.

Have a friend who installed the RaceChip, but wasn't thrilled with the results. Found that it "lurched" a bit too much for his liking.

Your car is X3 20d, so it has the B47 engine. Wiki is your friend...
