I currently have your stage 2 tune.... Do I have to read my ecu and send the file to you again to add this feature?

Just curious, but does a standard MPE count as a modified exhaust?

pretty sure modified exhaust means at least high flow cats if not cat deletes to get the full effect.

Yes please.

It is best if we have the very latest file for you in our records.

It probably wouldn't, best to wait until you free up some flow with those primary cats/xpipe

Only if you've modified the primary cats/xpipe

Costs have been decided:

We have decided to offer this for FREE to our existing customers. Yep, gratis.

We are going to build this into your tunes over a 4-6 week period. Please, please understand we are very busy at the moment so we can't put timeframes on delivery, but if you get your details in to us (file, name, car, exhaust setup) we will put you straight in the queue. Send to the normal address at data (at) evolve automotive.com

For new customers we are offering this as our of the features of our tune - visit our listing for more details: http://www.evolvetuning.us/bmw/3-ser...-ecu-tune.html
Amazing service again!!

Are there any shops in Norcal where I could get the evolve tune installed without having to buy the cable?

What about just test pipes and a Megan exhaust? I saw you mention straight thru silencers wasn't sure if that was the same. Do silencers = exhaust or resonators?

This is SICK! Sal sent me the new file yesterday and I've driven around 50 miles with the new tune and some things I've noticed:
-burble sound, while completely useless, sounds so cool
-they changed some things in their tune and I feel it pulls a bit harder now
-exhaust on idle seems louder (maybe?)
-with akrapovic evo, I can confirm it DOES backfire. Redlined 2nd and on the shift my friend who was driving behind me told me he saw a small backfire

Good work guys!!

Anything with primary cat delete and rear exhaust fits the bill so it would work for you.

BTW, I am so glad I went with evolve for my tuning needs and continued support. Currently my m3 is in storage but come spring I will be sending in my files for the updated tune. I have a catless quad resonated xpipe with borla rear section. This should be good.

I will post something with my loud AA exhaust with AA catless X pipe. Should be interesting. I'm currently waiting for my cable to arrive.
