But I'll take it to another dyno. Anyone you can recommend?

Why? At least you've got a baseline reading now, if you do any mods to the car or experience any problems. A dyno is generally a relative measurement anyway - hence IMHO going to another dyno with lower figures is not going to prove anything and would be a waste of time, unless you go with another stock 530d to compare.

Also, one of the reasons for a dyno is to check if a car is boosting properly, which yours seems to be doing. I'd say you got a stock healthy car - spend you money on keeping it that way. Just my R0.02.

Thanks dude. I'll take your word. Shall do another dyno at KAR once I've had the DPFs removed, and possible software...

So, some new pics seeing as I retardedly broke the other ones :flyfun:

Decided it was time, for the first time, to take off my wheels and give them a good scrubbing. This is what they looked like before:

Not too sure on figures. Still have to go for another dyno.

However :inlove: The feel is stunning. Very smooth gear changes compared to before the remap. Much more responsive. I like eeeeet! :rollsmile:
