G-Power Performance Kit G1
Has anybody had any experience with the G-Power Performance Kits for the E90? I'm looking into the Kit for the E90 330i (115.090.015I on page 6 of the attachment) but I really haven't heard form this company in regards to the 3 series.
I have seen the M5 and M6 Hurricane but I'am somewhat skeptical on the 15hp gain they claim their perfomance ECU upgrade gives the E90 330i. If anyone has tried it or has it, please share your experiences. Thanks, GDR |

I couldn't open the attached file, but do you have to send your ECU to them to be reprogrammed?
If you do and you get a reflash from the dealership later on - you'll loose the upgrade from G-Power. 15hp seems reasonable as Autothority is quoting 20hp for the reflash as are a couple others. I've requested a piggyback from Riss Racing (see their thread in this section). This will allow for reflashes from the factor and won't override the upgrade.

Here is the link in case you can't open it:
http://www.g-power.com/948.html?&L=1 I really don't know the answer to those questions, that's why I'm hoping someone will shed some light on the subject. Also, remember that I own the Euro Spec 330i with 272hp stock, so the USA ECU upgrade probably won't work for me and that is why I'm looking into Euro based companies. GDR |

Got it.
Yes, US has much stricter emissions controls than Europe at the moment.
