For now we are allowing people to send ECU back in and only pay the difference - so $500 in your example. This could change in the future but for now that is the policy we are going with. |

If someone triggers tamper code trying to flash tune they will probably not be the ones who will be able to fix it so you will have to send ECU to someone like us to resolve issue. It is not permanent but it will not go away on its own. Thanks. |

We are always up for flash parties in any geographies we can get enough cars together.

Yes, will run fine on 91 and will adapt to 93 and give you little more umph. In fact the more octane you put in it will adapt up but there is diminishing returns unless you begin to tune specifically for the higher octane fuels.

Quick update for you N55ers
For those N55ers watching this thread and asking about the N55 tune - things are looking good. Dyno testing on the M235i showed solid results +55whp and +80wtq on 91. We are planning on doing some more testing next week and then we'll publish our final results and get the product out on the market.

do you warrant it against damage the tune might cause like Dinan does?

Does tuning the ECU erase all of my feature coding, like DVD in motion, seat belt gong delete, etc.?

They already said it's a use-at-your-own-risk tune.

Correct, the only things that will reset are those things that reset as part of disconnecting the battery.

Yeah, it is our reality. Maybe someday, if we get big enough we can justify to cost of purchasing a secondary insurance policy like Dinan has done. But then again, that cost needs to be recovered so we would probably have to raise our prices up to where Dinan is today. A big chunk of the price premium is to fund that insurance (i.e. warranty). We've looked at secondary insurance/warranty options but they are just too expensive given our current situation.

ooo, that's interesting. So a 228 with a GSR stage 1 should produce about the same power as a stock M235 - and a little more with the stage 2, all while weighing less.
Of course a M235 with a GSR will blow it away but still cool that for $1k a 228 becomes faster than a stock M235!

Hmm that is much less than what we've typically seen from a typical stock M235i (~300whp).

We're trying to be as open as possible with the empirical data so the community has better visibility rather than just cherry picking the best numbers we see, posting those and anointing ourselves tuning gods. We'd like to think we are pretty good but ultimately the community determines that for you. |

N20/N26 Stage 3 Turbo Package Coming!!!
We agreed with Pure Turbos today to co-develop a Stage 3 package for the N20/N26 motors that includes a turbo upgrade (more specifically internal upgrades to the stock turbo). Pure Turbos are working on the upgrade as we speak and hopefully we'll get them on our 228i ASAP and develop the complimentary stage 3 tune. We'll see if this program makes it all the way to Stage 4 with bottom end internal upgrades and other sorted bits. Would be cool to see that little N20 producing S55 power on our little track beast. Of course at that point we would have slipped all the way down the slippery slope and into the realm of crazy time attack track car.
