Just saw this on RaceChip's IG and FB.

Can't wait until it is available for me to offer it to you guys.

Here is their quote.

"The new X4M is a FORCE!

611 hp and 535 lb-ft with our GTS Black..

We are used to great performance out of Germany, but the new S58 engine from BMW upped their game here."

Can't select the X3M on your website. What's the cost for this? I'm getting one next week maybe.

I did about 620 to the wheels on my first dyno run on RaceChip, then could only get mid 500s each run right after on the same dyno trip. I call it the one hit wonder.

Racechip is a very good product, I just wanted something better.

Did you put the car into dyno mode?

Yep.

Not saying I don't believe in the s58 but what's wrong everyone and the forum moderator?

Stop posting, and pull it off front page, until we see the dynograph please.

Seriously, this desperate for the S58 content?

Nothing from RC for the B58 2020 G01 M40i?
I'll see myself out.

It hasn't been released yet.
It is still being finalized, and I need to work with RaceChip to fine tune it for US market.
We may get more because we don't have OPF, but we may get less or the same because our gas in general is not as good as theirs.

Power doesn't fall off at all like the S55. Curious what's different with the S58.

See this, wow! https://www.bmwblog.com/2019/10/25/b...cechip-module/

ICantDrive4Sht · 10-25-2019, 12:37 PM

No baseline dyno, these numbers mean allmost nothing

EDIT: Just noticed it`s MAHA dyno, i take my words back.
And to NA guys it`s 509 hp from the wheels.

Eddien123 · 10-25-2019, 12:50 PM

Sheesh the s58 is wild. In a few generations (if they haven't gone full electric) the M5 is going to get an inline 6 lol

Ah okay. So it just isn't updated in their website it seems. Since all that they have available from the drop down for the X3 M40i is the 355hp 2019 engine and not the 382hp 2020 version. Do you have the power gains figures and price for the 2020 you can share?

Ahh, on the 2020. My mistake.
Let me ask them and find out.

I still don't understand. Is this baseline or with the chip installed?

If it's with the chip, how do we know what power it added?

I will make a post once they are available.
A reseller like myself have room to wiggle.
While manufacturers, they won't go off the MSRP just because they are trying keep their dealers happy.
But when they do have special, we as the dealer also will honor it.

That's why the german who do the R&D. Not some company who is using their customers as a guinea pig.

Will do.
I will update it here and a new thread will be created once they are launched and available.

Do you have the RaceChip for the European version X5 G05 30d with 265hp from factory?
The one I'm interested in is the RS with the app for iPhone

Yea, I'll PM you for the price in a bit.

TTR · 10-25-2019, 04:20 PM

RaceChip is peach of shit, don't recommend, had negative exp with their box, like 5-6 years ago my cluch on 330d just died after their map, and also don't recommend to remap car without delete cats and OPF (if you have it)

10/25/19: Dyno Sheet added. No baseline because we may have different baseline due to OPF and Gas Quality.

Cuz baseline without OPF is 550hp

It's with the chip, no baseline. So we cant be sure what power it added.

But MAHA dynos are the best out there, if it would be mustang dyno etc. I would be more skeptic of the numbers.

At least it will cause SCH lolololol, not a defective design as in the S55. * not cause

Any dyno can be calibrated to whatever the user wants. No baseline basically makes the comparison pretty worthless.

Lol. Usual RC bullsh*t. A dyno run without a baseline 😂
