Also, asap after fitting the chip, you should have the AFR's etc checked as there is a chance of you running lean and/or incurring knock in closed loop.
I have run a PP chip for nearly 3 years now with no adverse effects.

Yes, you will feel the gains. Quicker spool up and increased boost for starters.
As dj says, Z4 is 12.7psi c. 0.9bar. Your boost gauge should be telling you that!

It can be done on 'most' rolling roads and dynos mate, or by a mapper on the road. You can do it yourself if you have the kit ie wide-band lambda, det cans, cable and software.
