Tune for M235i?
Hello guys...
I was wondering as I might get an M235i soon what is the current panorama on the tune industry for this car? what sort of power we can get? Any other mods that can be done? like the golf tee mod etc... Thanks! JC |

Check Dinan 135 tune for N55 should be virtually identical.

i would think whatever is available for the M135i should be applicable, but the cars are too new I don't think people have tried yet!

being a N55 motor 360 hp is very doable unless BMW has made the ECU even harder to crack. Someone will figure that out though. I see this car having a very large aftermarket presence as it's price and performance will make it very popular. It may even eat into M4 sales. A few tweaks and you have a virtual M2.

Just a personal thing. I like things done properly and don't really like the idea of a bolt on that effectively "tricks" the standard Ecu. Lots of people happy with them though

Hartge or AC Schnitzer looks fine, its same "black box" system with lot sensors and additional ECU waits until oil temp isn't in right number than increase power.

Would be nice if Cobb could come up with something for it but seems like they haven't found how to break that N55 code yet...
Their solution through the ODBII is pretty neat |

I asked on the other site for Terry to respond if we can get Stage 2 without having to splice the CAN wires permanently or if there is a workaround so that it isn't visibly detectable that the car had an ECU tune on it.
I'd rather have Stage 2 over 1 but may have to go to Stage 1 if there is no workaround on visibly splicing into wires. |
