Buying a M235i with a remap

Hi I found a really nice M235i which the previous owner has remapped I wonder if anyone can sort of interpret things so I am more clued up and just give me any info really. I am not very technical to say the least but that's hopefully where you come in.

Receipt says:

EST performance stage 1 custom ECU and TCU software package
Removed and replaced charge pipe from throttle body to intercooler

That torque curve on that looks very "boosty"

For comparison here's a graph of my mates mapped M235i

Red is the stock map, and green the remap. IIRC the mods on his car at the time were an upgraded charge pipe, k&n filter, VSRF sports car, and resonator delete. The torque curve is pretty much identical to the stock map, just more everywhere.

Since then he's added a Pure 500 turbo, VSRF intercooler, and a stock B58 hpfp and had the map redone resulting in some great gains:

Again, it's retained a close to stock torque curve which makes it much nicer to drive compared to having lag followed by a big surge of boost/torque
