+370BHP for 35i

[Z_Victor1]

Have been in discussions with a company offering a 're-map' for the 35i.
This will increase the power to over 370BHP and torque to 410 lb.ft.

They are a very well respected UK company with an excellent reputation. I cannot name them at the moment as I have not had the work done.

Open question to any experts out there.....can the DCT transmission handle this torque output?

I have read on forums that it is not designed to handle more than 375 lb.ft.

ACS are offering a similar upgrade as part of their package for the new Z4...so yea should be fine.

They say that but Steve Dinan says otherwise. I'll take Steve's word on it.

ESS are doing some upgrades for the 35i now.

I'm looking at the JB+ for my Z4, does anyone have any comments about this or other products by Burgertuning.

The cost seems very low compared to ESS and Dinan. Also very easy to remove when servicing the car at the dealership.

What are your thoughts or experiences??
