Has anybody out there installed a Power Commander on there 2011 825i yet? I was just looking at them, and wondering if they would be worth the money or not? If anybody has any advise I would really appreciate it, thanks!!!

I have one in my Harley. My bike was the new 96 inch bike and was running awful hot (lean). I put the Power Commander in to richen it up some and thereby reducing the heat generated. It worked very well for that purpose. Not sure I saw a big power increase though. My experience with these devices is they work very well on diesel truck engines because most of the diesels are detuned to begin with. Nothing to get an extra 100HP out of a diesel with a chip/tuner. I see very little gains on gas motors. At least seat of the pants feel good gains. Just my $.02.
