One thing that worries me though is the dealer visit for those cars that are under warranty.


mine is. you can take this out in 5 minutes if you don't have to take pictures for e60.net.

I don't see how this would be any different from an SB...it's not really manipulating anything, just changing throttle response......


and you could always just uninstall it when you take to the dealer for service...

Gotta respect your bravery for being one of the pioneers with the Velocity unit.

Nice write up, bro :twoup:

I wonder tho: how come more people don't make devices like this? :rolleyes: Maybe some competition would bring the price to a more reasonable level... :whistle:
