Anyone notice anything different about the driving characteristics of thier car after the work when compared to before? Changes in how the car accelerates, or runs at WOT, or how the turbos seem to kick in. Gas mileage changed?

I don't think we know that the reman pumps are working any better. Didn't BMW replace like 1/3 of all pumps in 2007-2010 models in the past year? Those pumps aren't likely to fail immediately.
