Stage 0+ Tune?

[Longboarder]

I like the stock engine tune. I've had other tunes and prefer drivability and predictability of stock (same with stock DCT tune...very much dislike the behavior of the GTS tune).

But i do miss the 8600 rpm fuel cut. And I might want to go faster than the stock limiter allows on track.

So is there a tune/tuner option for a base stock tune (with all OBD readiness set - I need to pass smog in CA) that ONLY increases fuel cut to 8600 and eliminates the speed limiter?

Cheers.

You can use ECUWorks and do it yourself.

Yes very easy, ECUworx is one option.

If you were willing to learn some hex editing, you can make those changes yourself using MSS6xflasher. This stuff is talked about on na m3 forum if you wanted to learn more.

I was able to make the following changes with a hex editor from what I learned.
- Speed Limit removal
- Cold Start Rev limiter and temps
- Cold Start Removal
- RPM Limiters in each gear
- DTC code suppression

None of the tune tables were touched, all those I left stock.

Dinan will pass CA smog ( or it should as it's CARB approved )

Yeah, I'd do Dinan. Cheap, CARB approved, 8600 RPM, and feels like stock IMO.
