Can I purchase extra belts for the Harrop through you?
Sure, you can email sales@bpmsport.com with your inquiry.

Note that we are out until January 2nd and Mike will be back the 5th from vacation.

Hello There,

Follow the link below to one of their facebook posts. I've been following them on instagram and they have posted this kit up a few times. Looks like they are almost done testing it and will bring to market soon.

https://www.facebook.com/radiumengin...1843288195978/

Sounds like you'd be a good guinea pig for their kit.

I did a test with another tuner recently and ran full e85 on my factory fuel pump while being a Ess 625kit car. Logged the car with a solid afr that didn’t move even at redline. Part of the key was not using those small injectors sold with the kits by Ess. They end up relying too heavily on the fuel pump to cheat the Injector. Going with 1kcc injectors allowed for use on e85 with out leaning out or fuel pressure drop.

I'm just about to have this it installed on Thursday. A few questions for those of you that installed recently:

1) did you need to buy any misc parts or did harrop's crate truly include everything needed to bold on?

2) did you change out your spark plugs?

3) does the crate fit in the back seat? It's heavy and I kinda just dragged it into the house. I don't think it'll fit so I'll probably need to remove the contents to transport to my shop.

4) is the super charger oil already pre filled? I looked inside the crate and didn't find any.

1. Has everything.
2. Recommended
3. Won't fit easily
4. Factory pre-filled.

Does anyone have a valid Harrop Flash installer file? The one provided by Bimmerworld is expired. I dont need the actual tune file, just the installer to the software.

I reached out to BPM but they are not willing to help me since I didn't buy from them.

Wasn't looking for a custom tune - just looking for the installer software which I would assume is standard flashing software.

Understood, this would fall under software support.

hmm this seems quite odd to me since you are the exclusive tune provider for the harrop kit, so you are saying if i purchased directly from harrop themselves i couldn't come to BPM for any software support? who would i go to then? do i have to go to harrop to get to you?

Yes, I would also like the answer to this. If you buy a used kit, how do you get software support if BPM won't sell it to you?

I'm pretty sure BPM would sell it to you. If not, you can also reach out to Harrop directly. They were super helpful.

To clarify - I needed the software that is used to flash the tune. Not the tune file itself.

I purchased the flash tune from Mike when I bought my Harrop kit second hand.

It was a very straightforward process and Mike continues to be responsive to this day whenever I have a question.

Man if Stage 2 brings power levels closer to 600hp with E85 it would make this car the ultimate track/street weapon.

sorry, not sure what happened when I'm uploading through the mobile app. The best run was 473.

I am completely catless with an akrapovic slip-on
