I've been running the RaceChip on my X5 40i and will be posting a 1,200mi review soon.
Did you ever post that review ?

Does adding xlr on top of the gts black chip make a big difference? (40i)

I am a few months out on my incoming X6 M50i, but looking to see what toys are out there to boost the performance . Looks like a good place to start.

I wish I knew about ben before I ordered my racechip from Germany! as previously stated the instructions are to be desired. I am going to try and figure this out this weekend on my 50. I'm not that smart so I need lots of pictures. HAHA

Looks like we had a few 50 installs but no post install reviews!

Hey r33_RGSport - can the XLR be used in conjunction with other piggyback devices, or does it have to be used with the RaceChip? Or, is it completely separate all together?

I am looking to add this on top of my Carbahn tune, but want to make sure I can do it (I'm not sure how these get installed).

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do it since CarBahn piggyback is technically RaceChip.

You just need to use RaceChip App to control it.

@r33_RGSport

I assume you sell the Racechip for the X45e? Do you have any feedback from owners who have installed it on the hybrid?

More HP is always welcome, but what I am looking for is more torque on long distance towing trips, when the battery is depleted.

Thx.

Unfortunately, I never sold 1 yet.
Not sure why. I have sold a lot for 40i and M50i.

But based on personal experience on 40i since I have one, it does help the torque.

But Racechip makes a version for the x45e, correct?

Brain trust,

Looking to get the install done today and I found the boost sensor on the passenger side intercooler on the front of the intercooler. The driver side intercooler looks like it has it on the drivers side vice the front? Would that be correct for the 2019 X5 50?

No. Your X6 is G06 Chassis.
F15 is the previous Gen X5.

Any dragy numbers on the 40i with Racechip

I don't think the gts black helps with 0-60, I'm still getting just under 5 seconds at best. Mine really seems to make a difference at higher rpms. I don't have exact numbers, interested in the dragy info, but my 40i is noticeably faster to 100+ vs factory. Definitely makes the car more fun to drive.
