230i Gas Pedal Delay?

Theres like a dead spot when you first apply the gas. I hear this is normal for BMW's but i was wondering if a bootmod3 tune fixes this??

Sorry, have never experienced a dead spot...just turbo lag. Try sport and sport plus for quicker response to gas pedal movement.

sport mode makes all the difference....I don't know how people drive in any other mode in a 230.

Its easy. In fact, it is very easy. Learn how the car responds and drive accordingly

Garage List
ecu flash i recommend bm3 stage 2 e30, xhp trans flash ramp up torque launch settings to +40%, catless downpipe, decat straight pipe, e30, michelin ps4s with launch control at 3500 rpm = rip delay

best way for no delay tbh is naturally aspirated flax six

I'm used to a supercharger, so the turbo lag is unsettling sometimes, lolz... But only because it's a conditioned response from having it (Supercharger) so long! hahaha...
