F15 Diesel Tuning

[SharkPhi]

Does anyone know if the JBD or any other piggyback tune will be compatible with the F15 X5 3.5d? From my research, it appears that the JBD is cross-compatible with both the N57 and M57 engines, but I didn't know if the newer ECU would present problems; I am unfamiliar with any other piggyback tunes that have as good of a following as the JB guys, but if anyone knows of another tune I should look into I would be "all ears".


Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

I've been poking around this issue as well... Found a tune from Renntech (same as the MB tuner). I've heard Dinan doesn't want to do one because not enough people are interested... That sucks b/c it would keep our warranty

As it was once said - naming your company burger*, doesn't make it German On a serious note, what's a 3.5d? Is it what 3.0d called in US? ;/ Hartge sells their piggy back solutions for F15 from the end of last year. Just waiting for my M50d to arrive and I'm definitely their client after initial run-in.

I am thinking about this product
P.S. Already contacted maker and have installation guide in English, so if somebody need it-just let me know.

Yeah, it appears that the 3.0d everywhere else is the 3.5d in the US. It also appears that the 4.0d in the RoW has the same engine, but with higher output numbers...marketing at its finest. :-/

The Koch tuning looks promising. Let us know what you find out??

Ok, if install this product will share info(if not this one, anyhow something else and share for sure), still did not receive car yet and did not decide which product to choose.

Regarding 3.5-I am not sure, need to google how many Hp...
But regarding Europe can say that we have 3 modification of 3.0diesel engine:
3.0d- 1 turbocharger(if not mistaken 258Hp);
4.0d- 2 turbochargers(313Hp0this one I ordered);
5.0d- 3 turbochargers(if not mistaken something like 380Hp);
