I've been thinking about ordering a 87 performance tune with "chill" shifting.

Deuce, let us know how the x4 is! I have the chill shift profile and it is rather solid. I suspect Bennyboy is right about the street shifting being a little harsh for daily use. BTW I am getting 19.6 MPG after 350 miles of the tune. This is with the original 93/87 octane mix. Very happy overall.

I did not notice any lurching, but I guess it depends how you use the brake. If you just coast, then the downshifting is subtle. Side note- the other day I was on the interstate in 6th gear and out of no where my truck downshifted to 3rd. This has happened before the tune as well. kinda weird

So far I have net felt that lurching when braking heavy, lightly, or coasting.
