BMW won't do this.

There's LOTS of places that will be able to help you out.

Guys that alot of people rave about (in order of preference: for me from what I heard), Xcede (pm XPower on this forum), FRC, Nascar, Snails converions, Chiplogic, Superchips etc. etc. etc.

Of course BMW will do this, it's called AC Schnitzer.
JSN Motors in Bryanston do the ACS stuff.

I chipped my wife's E91 320d manual.
115kw - 149kw
340Nw - 390Nw

Not only did it improve the power and torque but it used to only pull from 2000rpm and it almost felt like you were hitting a brick wall at 3900rpm.
Now it pulls hard from 1700rpm and fades out (does not die) from 4200rpm to about 4500rpm but you are better changing up just before 4000rpm anyway.

It really made the 320d manual a much more driveable car and much much stronger. You are welcome to come test it if you like.

Downside though is, the ACS remap and exhaust tip cost me R19k... and you munch through your rear tyres :)

Yes, I'm really happy with the ACS but you'd probably do the same with an aftermarket chip and pay a LOT less BUT with motorplan issues though.

Hmm, my bad. I did not realize you can get ACS stuff in SA, except for aftermarket parts from zeemax.

There you have it.

E46M, if you don't mind me asking, have you guys had any turbo issues with the e91? What mileage have the car done since the chip?

No worries dude.

I had the ACS map done at 30,000km and she is now on 81,000km.
I haven't had a single issue with the turbo, only a new clutch at 55k and she still runs and pulls as strong as day one.
