    So, X-Visor knocks off -3 from BS attacks' range penalty.

    Grenades use PH; but it is considered throwing weapon which subtitude its attribute into PH.

    Does X-Visor grant bonuses when a unit with X-Visor throw a grenade by his own hands?

    Yep, i don't see anything in the rules against it. It's a bit weird but maybe the X-visor also include geometry for dummies

    Or the X-visor on grenades could also represent easy to throw grenades, that fly at a longer distance?

    Do x-visors also affect speculative fire?

    Yes, Speculative Fire uses BS Weapons.

    Which is what makes Emily and Druze so evil.

    Spec-firing EM 'nades at 16-24 with no penalty.

    Very true I have only had 1 or 2 games where it has made a difference though, but when that E/M grenade hits in 1 or 2 orders it is great.
    The other one is Druze nimbus grenades covering Yuan Yuans in Ikari or QK so people are firing 1 shot at your chainrifle wielding space pirates at -3 to hit when it makes no difference to your template that you shove down over their fireteam, makes that 8pt 0arm bloke actually stand a chance of getting to fire a second or third time
