Prepare for the quickest, easiest, safest way to
maximum power! The ultimate Intelligent Turbo Control Module from
VAC is ready to upgrade your BMW!
No wire cutting. No permanent mods. Invisible to ECU/dealer.
Industry leading power gains. Easiest to use. A great
value!
Excellent performance increases for your twin-turbo or single-turbo
BMW 6 cylinder; the power of other more expensive, more complex
options, with the plug an play ease you want and no warranty
troubles.
Applicable to the Turbocharged '07-'11 135i, 335i, 535i, Z4 and
X Series (N54 Twin-Turbo models); this 'Plug-and-Play' upgrade
comes boasting better performance, smarter electronics, easier
install, safer increase, future upgradeability, as well as lower
prices than the competition, and it delivers!...
We have kept this product under wraps while in development to be
the best... our VAC ITCM was well worth the wait.
Super compact and easy to use, On your right: see it shown next
to a standard spark plug for size comparison.
Now with hundreds of hours of testing on the Dyno, as well as
the street- follow up analysis with our trusted network of long
time customers, racers, and tuners around the globe provided
invaluable feedback in all phases of development. Both BMW dealers
and seasoned modifiers were overwhelmed with the improvements this
tiny module produces all while being super easy to install, and
completely undetectable.
These modules have been used on every current model and ECU
software of N54 engine. We have track tested this module at full
power for lap after lap with no issues whatsoever. The excellent
results our product produces were confirmed as a success.
We assessed from the start that our Intelligent Turbo Control
Module should meet all standards of the BMW owner, not just "big
power numbers".
- It is easy:... to install, easy to move, or
easy to remove from the vehicle; even by the novice...Our unit is
plug-and-play and by far the best easy of use/ to performance ratio
available. Ready to install out of the box; no laptop, map
switching or programming required. It can be installed and removed
as many times as you wish, on any compatible BMW without ill
effects. Includes a 'bypass valet key' that lets you disable and
remove the ITCM in 10 seconds so no one can access the
Intelligent Control Module, or steal the unit.
- It will not require: "check engine" lights or
trouble codes, no flashes, no ECU removal. No permanent
modifications. NO PROBLEMS!
No traces of the ITCM are left behind provided for the
dealer to see. Thermal management, fuel management, and over-boost
control make worries almost non-existent. It goes above and beyond
with no issues.
- It is elegant: Compact, look at home
installed, yet rugged enough for the toughest the road and track
can dish out. We include a OEM grade harness, and the unit is
enclosed in an extruded aluminum vibration damped case. It can also
be hidden to go completely under the radar when you open the hood.
This piggyback was specifically designed in both hardware and
software development phases to work with the OEM ECU not
aggressively against it as some others. No one would know BMW did
not sell this car off the show room floor other than the monster
power level it now has on command.
- It is upgradeable: the ITCM can be
reprogrammed in the event of dealer lockout in the future. Mods
like bigger turbos or oversize turbo-back exhaust systems and
larger intercoolers, Meth injection, etc. are all compatible with
the ITCM.
ALSO... If you move on to a 335d, 7 series, X5M or other turbo
BMW as they come out, you can take this module with you! Just a new
harness and re-flash and your ready! NO others can do this.
- It performs!!!: Eliminates nearly all Turbo
Lag brought on by dealer flashes, torque is stratospheric! Power is
linear and controllable yet has ferocious off the line and highway
acceleration. Drivability is completely uncompromised and
performance is very comparable to the E92 M3 or beyond with no
other mods. Works excellent with both manual and automatic models.
Power levels easily eclipse 115HP increases with other supporting
mods like exhaust and intercooler.
Customers car on the Dyno, V2 program VAC ITCM,
here is what he had to say:
Wow, you guys! The shops dyno operator and I were amazed at the
results of the product. There have been about 30 individual 335s
dyno'ed on this same shop's dyno with every type of turbo tuning
product: and the VAC module was within the very top of the
pack! All with only 2 wires and affordable.
We agreed this was the most impressive tuner for the car so far and
I am very glad I went with the VAC module.
"I dyno'ed 325 RWHP & 345 RWTQ With no other
mods! I am very happy"
5/2010 Update: The car felt even better with the high
flow downpipes, AFE intake and Borla exhaust, I'm outrunning every
car on the road!"

---FAQs:
Q: What if BMW changes the ECU, or a new feature comes
out? Or if I sell the car?
A: We want to offer what no others can. We support our "Intelligent
Controller" products 100% and allow you to upgrade to the latest
new features for free! In the case of an upgrade, such a s a new
feature very minimal money as you only pay for the hardware if
necessary. In this example, if you were to purchase this unit now
and we come up with a new feature like a switch to change a
function, we would upgrade the firmware for free and only charge
you for the additional hardware required to do that. This way you
get all the benefits of the new features without having to spend a
bunch of money!
ALSO, if you get a new BMW, like a 335d, or X6M or even new Turbo
M3 or M5 (everyone knows thats next). We will be able to offer you
a super quick option of a new harness & software reprogram, and
now your ITCM works on your new car! The ITCM is very flexible
and will be upgraded over the years.
Q: What if my car is still under warranty, or I am concerned
about reliability?
This unit is the evolution of previous technology that has been
proven for many years by one of Europe's #1 ECU tuners. We invested
many hours of development on the ECU tuning and needs of the BMW
owner, but the hardware itself has already been proven thousands of
times. Proven to be exceptionally safe and reliable, over many
years and thousands of miles.
The ITCM is designed to be installed and removed in about 30 min by
almost anyone. We include simple, yet detailed instructions so you
will be confident you can have your car ready to be dealer serviced
in a moments notice, and then back on the road with your power
gains immediate after. The ITCM unit is undetectable by the
ECU.
