I also have dyno-ed on local customer's car. I post the dyno result on one of the thread regarding RaceChip. The advertised number is crank hp, my dyno result is wheel hp.

Their 850hp is not that hard to believe because a lot of folks have dyno'ed their cars and showed that the car was actually producing 700hp (crank) instead of 617hp claimed. BMW is known to "under rate" their cars, or they just use a different rating than others. So if 700chp is stock, 850chp after a tune is not too hard to believe, especially when using a HP happy dyno. But again, I'd rather see deltas than final results. I want to see: Before: 570whp. After: 670whp. I'll take that over any 850hp claim.

Dinan is worth waiting for in my opinion. In the meantime this thing is plenty of fun to drive 🥳 Spoke to Dinan last week and they are hard at work....shortly after the M5 tune comes out, X5M will follow. Expected mid-late 2021 (don't quote me as I have no real idea just picking up on the vague hints I was given)..with hardware to follow.

Exactly, ill wait for Dinan or CarBahn. I may be wrong, but i don't think these tunes reduce safety parameters in the software in an attempt to extract more power. Not commenting on the piggy back chips cause i don't know about those. I believe Dinan & CarBahn have ''safe tunes'' if there is such a thing.

Has anyone been following what the M5/M8 platform to see how robust (or not) this platform is when tuned?
I haven't been but I've come across a few posts where their engine blew up while tuned. One guy even had his engine go because he didn't do his 1200 mile break in oil change until way later. I feel like every BMW engine has a weak link and i don't think anyone here wants to find out what it is the hard way lol Alan
