So, I had a stage one tune done on my 2015 328i xdrive wagon. I didn't know what to expect. The tune was done by my local shop, JVR in Port Washington, NY. Epic Motorsports in FL did the actual coding. I did no physical modifications to the car. I was willing to but Randy at Epic said no need.
The results were more than I could have hoped for. The car has a VERY noticable increase of power in every mode. I have no numbers on the car, but Epic sent me dyno run of the same engine with the same tune at approx 350 ft/lbs and 300 wheel hp. Eco pro feels like comfort. Comfort feels faster than Sport did, and Sport is now a little too much for around town driving. Gas mileage seems the same to slightly better. Driveablilty of the car at slow and normal driving is unchanged. No codes. Until you press the pedal a little there is no sign anything was done.
Shout out: JVR is the best BMW shop I have seen. They run several race teams. Are straight forward and reasonable. They will always do the right thing by you.
Epic Motorsports seems to be THE place for tuning. JVR will not recommend anyone else and I am more than happy with the results
