positiveions · 02-08-2013, 11:07 AM

Those are great numbers.

Slapshot9 · 02-08-2013, 10:30 PM

Im considering getting mine done. Mike or Tech can you PM me pricing?

JD3 · 02-08-2013, 10:39 PM

I'm getting Turner Test Pipes installed on Monday with a BPM Stage II tune shortly afterwards (cables are in the mail). I have stock X pipe (though that may change at some point) and an Agency Power axel back, that's it.
Looking forward to working with Mike and giving a review once it's complete. Now we need the weather to warm up in Ohio!

I would like to see similar data with 91 octane which is all I can get.

JD3 · 02-09-2013, 02:26 AM

^same here

Mike Benvo · 02-09-2013, 07:11 AM

It's all I got too

I have one from about a month ago on a Mustang dyno. I will look for it. Gains are pretty similar, slightly less but still there.

You can flash Euro DCT now?

His installer had an ICOM, so I used that. Always able to flash it, just afraid of using the standard coding cable. More developments to come on this when I have some time to test.

vinniechin · 02-10-2013, 07:21 PM

Let me know...I'm in! Thanks Mike.

A more aggressive version of our US MDM.

SSJVegita · 02-11-2013, 11:42 AM

damn i got really happy with the euro dct flash but i guess you still arent able to remotely do it

EliteM3 · 02-11-2013, 04:07 PM

Mike, did you ever figure out how to adjust launch control rpm range below 5000 on DCT cars?

Yes I believe I can do that, but I need a DCT car to test it on locally.

WOW!
Looks like my little intro between two great BMW guys worked out for my old friend Janis! Haha...

Good numbers Mike! Glad to see you are working with Dan at BPC-He is a great asset to the BMW community!

Keep up the great work everyone!

Thank you!

Dan is a great guy and I thoroughly enjoy working with them. In fact, all the guys at BPC are down to earth and extremely knowledgeable.

We've done quite a few E60 M5 and M6 euro SMG flashes and coding sessions. Working on some intake manifold swap software flashes with them on E46 also. Great stuff to come!

Hey Mike I PM'd you, hit me back

Bmw135er · 02-13-2013, 08:45 AM

I like the AFR on the tune, but is the stock AFR really that bad? Perhaps there was an issue with the dyno's wideband? Guess I never paid attention to others dyno, or at least not that I can recall.

The stock AFR is not that bad. The tune shouldn't change the AFR targets much, if at all. There was something wrong with the sniffer, or the adaptations were cleared before the stock run.

Mike Benvo · 02-13-2013, 01:06 PM

Nothing was cleared or touched before the stock runs (at least to my knowledge, i doubt the dyno shop has the tools to do that).

Clearing the adaptations is not going to make the car run rich like that.

Maybe a glitch with the wideband. The shop did tell me that on one of the runs with my tune it matched the stock AFR. Stock targets are around 12.5 at redline. I target around 12.8.
