Hello Guys, First thread i made, second post.

Firstly i know a lot of you will think your 19... why you asking.. well i have currently started saving up for a m135i will be able to get one when i am 21.

Been reading up a lot on them and had a question.

When i get one i wanted a Sportec cat back exhaust and a JB4 map.

The auto gearbox(my preference) is rated to 450nm of torque max, the car standard has 450nm of torque, but has max of around 1000nm i heard when changing from 1200 rpm in 8th to near redline in 2nd, All the maps are chucking out an extra 40-50 HP so obviously the torque has been increased, how is this affecting the auto gearbox(if anyone has an auto with a map) i know under extreme conditions the ECU monitors the temp of the gearbox and reduces torque accordingly.

Want to know what effect this will have on the lifetime of the gearbox or clutch?
