Lack of an iOS app is not an issue for me because I use Android devices.

I will most likely use an OTS tune, so the availability of a custom tune is not a key factor for me.

Yeah, it should be easy enough, just need some decent weather as it’s in the 40s here still and snowed last night.
However, my shipment somehow got routed by fedex from Michigan, in a city 30 minutes away from where I live to, to Ohio...so no downpipe until hopefully tomorrow. |

And, on an OTS map!!! MHD B58 ST2+HPFP OTS map results + New B58 gen1 stock turbo 1/4 World Record! https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1712149 On a separate note, are upgrading your fuel pump as well? Honestly, you absolutely should! It is a one man job as well. |

I just got done flashing stage 1...incredibly smoother performance than dinan. Transmission no longer jerks when shifting. Said f it and flashed stage 2. Wicked. I’m gonna keep my eye out on the Supra HPFP or one from a g20, install looks easy enough. |

Worst of all, is there a smell from car when E30 is mixed with 93 gas? Again I have a convertible. |

I’m not interested in e30 or any ethanol blended setup TBH.
The idea of mixing gas and carrying mix in the trunk with you is completely opposite of daily driver for me. I want to pull up to a gas station, refuel, and go. Not interested in using a calculator for this process or seeking out ethanol pumps. |

Since this was going to be my daily driver I was planning on sticking with stage 2 for smoother shifts, but with the increased power delivery my shop even floated the idea of going straight with stage 3 (aggressive shifts in sport) and naturally more wear and tear on the transmission. They did say that if the car is not being tracked then stage 3 may be "too much for everyday driving" and "may hurt the transmission". |

I’m sure I’ll be more than happy with stage 2 xhp. Gotta admit I’m Jealous about the turbo. You definitely need to record a sound clip after. Which fuel pump did you decide on? |

I haven't received it yet. Plus once the shop opens up I want them to order it so they can warranty the work as well. They don't warrant work for parts which they haven't ordered themselves. Fine, I will let them play ball. Dude I am going with the nuclear option for this convertible haha I am hoping to hit close to 600 whp on pump 93 Edit: I must admit, despite my jokes of "600 WHP powaaaah!!!" I will be happy with a respectable 500 WHP, which frankly, is more than enough for a car that will never see the track. This is why I wanted AWD as well. |

The problem is, anything other than the b58tu pump will naturally necessitate a turbo upgrade as well, for maximum smiles per gallon. |

The problem with the B58TU pump was simple: in my head it is *only* $400 cheaper than a Dorsch Stage 2 (at least at the time), and... call it crazy, but if I am upgrading turbos then makes intuitive sense to upgrade the fuel pump as well. I mean, the stock B58TU pump, for what it is worth, is great for "stock stuff"; I want to keep the options open and when you are upgrading something as crucial as the turbo to a stage 2 setup then it makes sense to for a 3rd party professionally done fuel pump set up. I will absolutely not rely on the B58TU pump after turbo upgrades. And, again, only a $400 difference. No brainer. Given our specific B58 engines, I just think a fuel pump upgrade should be just as crucial as the charge pipe upgrade with the N55. If anything should be done before anything else, even a DP. Believe me, I am running on intuition. No logic here haha Oh, oh! And go with Stage 2 Dorsch. The Stage 1 has noise dampening issues and you can hear the stupid thing whine whine whiiiine. There is a thread going on about this in the F30 forums and people are changing g their orders. |
