Extremely impressive (ambitious...?) gains, the 1080 Nm is pretty crazy.

Bit disturbed by this:

Weil kein Kunde in jeder Situation 780 PS benötigt, ist das Freischalten der Leistung an den Fahrmodus gekoppelt. Ähnlich wie beim FFR M340i G20 bleibt der Motor im Eco-Modus auf dem Niveau der Serienleistung, was mit einem S58 unter der Haube aber bereits 510 PS bedeutet. Schon im Komfort-Modus zündet FF Retrofittings die erste Stufe und schafft die Voraussetzungen für 630 PS. In den Modi Sport und Sport Plus steht schließlich die volle Power der Stage 2 zur Verfügung: 780 PS und 1.080 Newtonmeter Drehmoment können dem S58 entlockt werden.

The M cars has Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus mode, not Ecoplus, Comfort, Sport and Sport Plus as quoted above, so if this is not even correct, then what about the rest?

Nevertheless, the S58 certainly has amazing tuning potential.

You're right Anders...they got the different modes wrong and add a 4th one
But it's an interesting approach to have the power output beeing staggered to Comfort, Sport & Sport+.
Nontheless, those numbers seem really impressive. Hope there will be more detailled info available soon.

hier ist die Textpassage:

Ich dachte hier ist der ECO Pro Modus des M340i die Rede aber dann schreiben sir ja wirklich vom Komfortmodus mit 630PS. Okay! You're right!
