If you dont want issues dont remap. If you remap, do it properly, as far as I know it doesnt matter if you get 240 or 260-270 horsepower, it will be just fine anyway. The reason why some tuners just pull out 230-240 horsepower and 480-500 NM torque is because they dont know the program well enough to reach the engines potential.

The E92 325d I met on the A42 this afternoon certainly was left for dead

Does anyone actually know if the "bigger" turbo on the 335d is any bigger than the one on the 325/30d ?
We know that the 330d can be mapped to 320 hp as the d3 boys did this in the Gumball. |

A 335d will kick any 325d anytime even if the 325 is chipped or not Last edited by dagjohnsen; 01-14-2008 at 01:56 PM.. |

They dyno 300-310 hp standard...... Most tuners tune the 330d to around 270 honest horsepower. A crazy chip would take it up much higher, but its not safe. ESS chip the 120d (163 hp) to 200, but they can also make it 220 if they push it, but not for customers They have a testcar themselves with 220 hp and it runs fine still.... |

Secondly, having driven a E60 525D for 60k miles I can agree it is not a slow engine.

Sorry I didnt get it Just a quick question, the 335d, when does the torque really kick in? On the 325d it starts to build up from 1300 rpm and kicks hard from 1750. Is the 335d similar, or does the smaller turbo work even earlier? |

With the 335d there is nothing discernible! it takes off like a bat out of hell even on partial throttle. Took a friend out last night for a quick spin and he was shocked at the phenomenal performance in comparison to his E46 330i coupe and his 845i (the m power v8)

The new 525d is a detuned 3 litre diesel. The older engine was very similar to the equivilent 3 litre but of a lesser cubic capacity
