indeed a £75 chip should get me to 170 ish, remove the cat and nearer 180, on the stock turbo intercooler and single silencer stock exhaust
mine is a pre facelift E34 525 TDS, registered January 94, so same engine as the E36.
It may just be an internet rumour then but a lot of the searches I've done come up with something about head related problems with heat/cooling or something like that.
I just hope my little 2.0 DI can make 170+ with the same turbo! Although you can't compare the sound of a straight 6 lol.
