Waiting for the flash tune...

Are we all basically just waiting for a flash tune for the B58? I am considering a piggyback but honestly I want a more elegant solution and would love a Dinan flash tune to oomph up the m240.

I'd like to see the intake, exhaust and flash tune on my car and very little else. Anyone else waiting for something like that?

The MP tunes (DME and Trans) have been very well reviewed both on the X3 m40i and some x40i models (2-4 series). Poke around the forums, can find the reviews

MIssion Performance and HC Performance are out there, with a 3 others close to launch, and Dinan flash tunes expected late Q2, ...... lots on the horizon, but right now the MP tune is CRUSHing!

PS: lots of flash tune info in the 3 series forums

Anyone know what the hold up is with Dinan? With a brand new car I would prefer something bmw supported but I might end up with MP if they don't have anything out before summer.

You should have a Dinan flash thats warrantied by mid / late summer I would guess. Dinan says Q2. I plan on switching over from the piggyback as soon as its available.

Instead of waiting, get the JB+ for now.


You have 1 year to use it, then send it back for a credit towards a Jb4 or flash tune

Any reason not to get the jb4 then? The jb+ is just a boost controller right? Is the jb4 safer? How does that stack up to the Dinan piggyback?

Jb4 is the best piggyback, it has more features, flexibility, control and power than Dinan

My post was a reply to users waiting for the flash and not sure whether they want a JB4 or flash tune. Im offering them the JB+ for now and once flash is out and they decide which route to go they can send the JB+ for a store credit
