Piggybacks are useless in a BMW DME.
Unless you are going to do all-balls-out modifications to your beemer, you would be wise to opt for DME in-chip tuning from www.racersmarket.net or www.millerperformancecars.com.

The car's been running for over a month now; had all sorts of vacuum and boost leak issues. Became well acquainted with public transport... I think I finally fixed the last leak between icv and manifold (replace new o-ring) and got boost up to 0.7 bar or so from 3.5k rpm to abt 6krpm in 4th.
I do think the turbine rotor is a bit oversized by 4mm so boost is a little late. Waiting to get clutch replaced first before going to dyno.

You may need to bolt down that icv connector via the inside of the manifold. Mine had been popping out of the socket a numerous times when in boost from 2k up and nothing seems to hold it tight until I secured it. May want to consider new or aftermarket manifold gasket too. Weak points for leaks.
