Many thanks for posting on this.

To be clear, we are not yet "claiming" these power figures, as we stated below these are estimates, based on detailed conversations with Schrick andc our software engineer.

Also these figures are at the engine, NOT at the wheels,and using the second stage cam set, not the first, sorry if we were not clear on that.

As we have seen up to + 35 bhp on these engines from just a remap alone, then 45 bhp with cams is not at all unresonable as an estimate.

We hope to be installing this conversion soon to a customer's M6 and will keep you posted and hopefully provide power graphs.

Remember also power modifications are not always cumulative in their gains, that is to say if one product is claimed to give an increase of say + 10 bhp and then a different product at +15 bhp, fitting both together does not necessarily gain you +25 bhp.

thank you
