M50i racechip

Ordered the gts 5 black racechip today, I had it on my 40i and was please with the improvement so I have high hopes. Has anyone here been running a racechip on the m50 that could give some feedback?

I had it for about a year and went with Carbahn after for the last two years. I found the shifts when in the most aggressive settings for Racechip were rougher compared to carbhan. Racechip might be slightly quicker but I like the smoothness with Carbahn when WOT in the aggressive setting.

Nothing wrong with racechip and 90% of the time I’m in ECO mode.

Enjoy! I had one on my M50i. I will do one for my M60i most likely later in the year- it made a noticeable difference on my dragy results and butt Dyno.
