I suspect Marco may be taking the iss2: as you haven't said whereabouts you live.
However if it's just a review, and not a recommendation your after, then I would definitely day go for it. A remap from a reputable tuner will really transform your car and there are very few downsides.
I'd like some info about this too for my e82 coupe. Spoke to a few places about it including having the dpf removed and the egr delete. One place has got back to me saying they would advise me to remove the dpf as it will reduce back pressure and cause issues ??
DPF delete is an MOT fail nowadays, but currently it's only a visual check. You can gut the standard pipe and still pass. There have been reports of the reduced back pressure doing odd things to the turbo, it's definitely best done in conjunction with a matched remap. Speak to Stan at Ecotune Scotland.

Hello, they wouldn't advise me to have it done. But currently speaking to p torque about having it done and I would of had it remapped to suite aswell.
Ive just been to P-Torque recently and can highly recommend it. The experience was nice, Will was very welcoming and knowledgeable.
Comfy leather sofa, a cup of tea and stack of BMW Magazines.
Took around an hour or so, with the dnyo before/after included with the remap. I mentioned about using it for work and wanted reliability over max HP. He mentioned he doesn't recommend more than 225HP and 450 nm (332 lb/ft) is a safe limit for gearbox and without putting unnessesary pressure on the turbo.
Although it shares the N47D20 even after replacing a lot of parts from the 120/123 like the brakes, intercooler, injectors, turbo, clutch, gearbox etc with almost 100 HP added to a car that's originally built for handling 115 HP just sounds like a liability. :|
A stage 1 remap alone on a 116d will usually see 145 HP to make it similar to a 118d on paper.
