My understanding is some dealers, especially BMW are dicks with any ECU tuning and will deny support. And then it's a question of whether it's worth hassle to go to court or eating the cost. Maybe that was just limited to messing

No it would be stupid good. PRC export value went from 2.5T in 2019 to 3.4T in 2021, to 3.6T in 2022. It increased more during 3-4 years of covid than previous 10 years combined (1.4T in 2009). Primarily because 0covid left most of PRC undi
