Just would like to say that after getting my tune, the Eisenmann Sport might be in the same boat as the Akra. It's too quiet and no flames. Just FYI for anyone else.

Interesting. The Akra system does muffle a lot though.

I have Test Pipes with AE Performance Exhaust and mine doesn't backfire. It did it a couple random times after some really hard driving, but nothing crazy.

It has to be on the X pipe definitely, I can assure you mine does backfire and it is loud and deep pops.

So glad I found this thread (and now revived it). I will be getting their tune for all the great comments about CS, product, and innovation. So excited to get my (new-to-me) 2008 M3 a little peppier, a little louder, and a little scarier!

I'm seriously thinking of going with this tune for this feature as well as the good reviews on the tune itself. I have an ESS tune now but like this added feature you guys offer. Does your tune software and cable currently support Windows 10 or have a work around for it? I know with ESS I had to work with their software department to figure it out.

There is a walk around for 8 that in used. Basically you tell windows to ignore signatures for USB. Not sure on 10

It sounds amazing. Question: does the tune cause excessive traces of fuel in engine oil over time?

Yeah, it's called 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement' when in the Advanced Boot Options screen. I did that for the ESS tune in Windows 10 and it worked for the cable driver. Just want to make sure that the same thing works for this tune as well as the tune software when using Windows 10.

Works with Evolve as well, they provided me with instructions and it worked fine.
