i3 "tuning"

It seems that the smart folks at Dinan and other outfits seem to quickly figure out the brains of BMW's up and down the line up and find ways to make improvements. I would think that the i3 would be (relatively) easy pickings to provide for additional power and torque, though for me the ability to control the range extender before the battery situation reaches critical (like i3's across the pond) would be a real value. An aftermarket 3-4 gallon tank would be nice as well. Either performance or rex control would certainly be counter to the dictates of CARB and other USA regulators though it sure would enhance the i3. I have not seen any discussions on the subject though I am interested in what others might think on the subject.
