Foursprung: Top speed limit remover for your BMW

As you know German supercars, and let's assume BMW's as such ones for a moment, are limiting their speed limit to 250 km/h or 155 miles per hour.
It doesn't need to be like that if you use the top speed limit remover from Tuner Motorsports for $649.

So you’ve just shelled out $90k+ for your 507hp BMW super-sedan, and are bummed out that you can’t get it past 155 mph on the Turnpike because of the pesky electronic speed limiter? Well, there’s a solution.

Turner Motorsport is now selling a top speed limiter removal unit for your BMW E60 M5, BMW E63 M6 (which isn’t for sale here in the U.S. just yet), and it even works on the BMW E46 M3.

What’s nice about this unit is that it doesn’t require messing around with the factory ECU tuning, and it’s reasonably priced at $649. BMW charges around $1500 to have the top-speed limiter removed in Europe, and Hamann will do it for you with their software and tuning upgrade, which costs more than $10,000.
