EVOLVE or DMS for ECU remap?

Hi I've recently purchased a 335i and want to get the most bhp and TQ possible (in safe limits) from an ECU re map but must be hassle free i.e. no limp mode problems!

The two companies that I have spoken two are Evolve and DMS, both seem very professional and are similar on price.

If anyone has experienced both re maps I would appreciate your feedback and advice as i am new to the tuning side of things.

Please list the bhp and TQ and whether its been tuned by DMS/ EVOLVE.

Thanks James

Why do you want to flash the ecu? Why not just get a piggyback?

I was told its safer as they increase performance without that much increase in boost levels. Is theat correct? Im new to the whole tuning thing, Ive read the posts on DMS and EVOLVE and they both seem to give good performance.

Why would you suggest using a piggyback system? if so why?
Thanks James

Evolve? as in the company from California that was tuning Volvo's? I've heard and seen bad things w/ them if its the same company.

I think you should be posting in the UK physio335, Evolve is a UK based company that offers flash tuning and this is the worldwide section, you'll find more members with Evolve tunes there
