M240i JB4, Dinan Elite V2 or Mission performance flash tune.

I got an ER catless downpipe for Christmas this year from my parents. I'm aware this will give me a CEL unless I have a spacer. Which I don't want to do. I'm going for the flash tune or piggyback options.
I already have an agency power intake and m perf exhaust.

In everyone's opinion what's the best option right now? Pros cons of each?

thanks

Wow, 100HP on a flash tune with an OTS map? I'd be a little skeptical/careful with that tune. I'd at least want to do it in increments to make sure stuff does not blow up!

Agreed, I want some more information on this one. Just stumbled upon it

Jb4, can’t beat the options and flexibility. Free back end flash will be coming out next year also. Best of both worlds.

You're still going to get a CEL with a spacer. I made it 1500 miles on my ER pipe before popping the light. I can clear with the JB4. Flash vs JB4 has been beaten to death. Do a search here and on the 3 series B58 forum.

Stage 1 is showing +100 and Stage 2 is showing +120. They're playing the Dinan game and using a stock figure of 320, which is really underrated by a good 40 hp. They're also either estimating or extrapolating crank numbers, so 60 or 80 at the crank is not too extreme. For perspective, Mission Performance got 65 at the wheels on Stage 1 and 78 at the wheels on Stage 2 (no DP) and their tunes are safe; they run richer than stock.
