So, reading some of the ESS tune impressions, it seems like something like this is a no brainer. Smoother throttle response, better midrange and top end power, noticeable improvement to overall driveability...

But there's no such thing as a free lunch, right? What's compromised with these software changes? Engine longevity? Fuel economy? Just wondering why BMW's programmers wouldn't have developed the stock DME to provide more power if the potential was there?
