I put my tune on and it idles like a champ, but I can not get above 2500rpms in any gear. In neutral I can rev. Could it be in or have a valet mode?

Sounds like it or you have a bad tune loaded. How many tunes are on it and what modes?

The tune is actually the "fixed" version. I had them build me a 93 oct tune that fit my mods. I have the canned tune and my 93 oct tune.

Sounds to me like they might have accidently set your rev limiter to 2500. My X3 has the ability to change the rev is why I am saying that. If you have the tuner plug it in and see where it is set at.
