HP is not free, and is a result of burning fuel and air.
I've had chips in cars before, it never gave increased fuel economy and is certainly not a mod to save gas. I must say if anything it will hurt gas mileage (if it works) because it'd be more fun to floor the car and you'd do it more (again if it works)

I have a hard time believing that upsolute is the largest anything anywhere. If they had any size or marketshare I would imagine maybe seeing an ad or hearing about them somewhere. I read all the big car mags (automobile, C&D, R&T, motortrend, roundel, autoweek) and have never heard of them in my life.

don't try and sell this as a mileage increaser, if it works (which I doubt) the best you can hope for is not to hurt fuel economy

I find it very very hard to believe that in these days of power wars that BMW would just leave 20 hp on the table
