About the remap

Stage 1 chip tuning for the BMW 5 serie 525i 218hp increases power from 218 to 266 hp (+48 hp, +22%) and torque from 270 to 315 Nm. Turbocharged petrol engines respond exceptionally well to ECU optimization – adjusting ignition timing, boost pressure, and fueling maps unlocks the hidden potential built in by the manufacturer.

The remap is performed on the Bosch EDC17CP45 ECU (engine code N53B30A) via the OBD2 diagnostic port – no ECU removal required. We use Autotuner Autotuner, ByteShooter Toolbox, CMD CMDFlash and other professional tools. Results are verified with a dynamometer measurement.

In addition to Stage 1, we offer the following services for the BMW 5 serie 525i 218hp: XHP gearbox tuning. All work is performed using professional equipment.

Stage 2 is also available for the BMW 5 serie 525i 218hp – the next level of optimization with even more significant power gains. Stage 2 involves ECU calibration tailored to modified intake and exhaust systems. Consult our specialists to evaluate the potential.

Every vehicle undergoes full diagnostics before and after the remap. We keep a backup of the original ECU calibration and guarantee the option to revert to stock settings at any time. JVK PRO is a professional chip tuning service in Riga with 16 years of experience.
