I strongly recommend it as I used it and all my other friends with BMWs have too but to each their own I guess.
What are the massive gains?
My car was pushing 593.42 whp and 577.02 wtq on pump gas with the tune set to +3lbs of boost. Stock dyno had shown 539.91 whp and 509.06 wtq earlier the same day. That's just my car with no crazy mods and the Burger Tuning piggyback. My friend's M5 with FBO and JB4 + Meth made an Aventador look as slow as a Passat. Not sure what the gains would be on a 650 but I'd expect it to be quite a jump over stock too.
