So in our stage 2 tune we are asking the ECU for more torque than in the stage 1 because we can expect to get it with a freer flowing exhaust side. If we get too greedy on stage 1 and ask for too much the ECU does adjust but we do get some surging (or over boosting) at the low end which manifests itself as a bumpy curve on the dyno graph or a feeling of non-linear power delivery in your butt dyno. This is also why you are seeing people blow stock charge pipes on crappy tunes and over aggressive piggyback systems. We've tried to get as much as we can with the Stage 1 given the flow constraints so going to Stage 2 tune without freer flowing exhaust side would not be ideal. Specifically for 228i AT customers there is a torque limit variable that is kicking in at or about 350 wtq. We've just verified that it is cutting throttle which to people feels like misfires but we haven't figured out yet how the limit is implemented within the ECU so we are saying to customers that run Stage 2 on 93 that they will probably be exceeding the 350 wtq limit. We are making progress and have a 228 AT running a new beta version of the tune with some changes that might address the torque limit but it's still early days. Nick... |

There are some variable/table labels that we recognize from previous versions but a lot of those are in technical German engineering speak which makes it that much more fun. Nick... Last edited by GSR Technik; 05-20-2015 at 03:14 PM.. |

Just sent you an email for additional data. Thanks. Can I make a deposit at the club price and wait for you to finish the stage 2 tune? |

We are going to be testing a development tune for our 228 MT Stage 2 specific for race fuel - this Friday. Going to be interesting to see what type of numbers she puts up. Then on to the Bimmerfest track event Saturday. Our baby is not going to be put in a corner - she's no booth queen - we're there to be on track!
See you all there. We'll be in the garages. Nick... |

Compiler technology being where it is, I'm sure there is a way to use something like LLVM to write a cross compiler that outputs the machine language binary into a higher level code like C or Rust or Go or something. That usually takes a graduate student at least 6 months, though lol |

Always several ways to skin a cat !! At least on face value there are some important parameters that can be manipulated Hopefully in time additional coding branches within the code structure can be identified and tweaked.

Money Sent...Stage I engaged! Now how about that axle back muffler delete!
Bobby or Nick, I forgot to ask but will the Stage I remove the speed limit and does it change the rpm limit, i.e. run WOT to 7K vice the ecu causing a shift point at 6800? Last edited by OpenAir; 06-19-2015 at 11:02 AM.. |

Hey Nick..with all your experience in racing and modifying, do you think there is a real need for an oil catch can for the 2.0L? Picking your brain a little and giving the thread a bit of a 'bump'

GSR Autosport has the 350wtq limiter been revised if it only affects Automatics and not Manual cars?
For us with 93 octane otherwise stock wanting to get the ECU Flash stage1 what will happen? Is the issue happening with 91 octane or 93 as well ? goon Stubok what do you guys think

Only put 93 in. It seems like there is something funky going on with the DP and 93 combo. That said I may not be a good example, as suspect a boost leak. |

Thanks for the input!
Those are some low dyno numbers. I baselined 238hp and 260lbft on a dynojet on a 80deg day here in TX. Based on those delta's I would be about 280hp and 310 lbft at the wheel. In any case I know of at least 3 other guys plus me having some anomalies with stage 1. So there is something else at play with stage 1 and either coils, MAF, boost leak, stock DV or something else. |
