Flash at home custom tune, does this exist on BMW?

FirstBMWLA · 07-27-2010, 05:16 PM

Just curious if anyone makes anything with anywhere near the capability of
something like this product which is for GM but for BMWs
http://www.hptuners.com/products/vcmsuite.php

I'm aware of the flash at home offerings but they all depend on you
paying them for the tune and you cannot see any code or customize
etc as far as I know.

Closest thing would be JB3 PNP?

There is another that plugs into the obdII port but I dont remember what it is called. Search on here.

I've searched a lot and all of these seem very limited in what you can do compared to something like I listed. Just wondering why nothing like this has bee done. Maybe there are specific reasons I'm not aware of.

The jb3 is basically an low tech add-on boost controller. How is this anything like an at-home ecu reflashing system?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing lol. It's not even in the same ballpark as what I'm talking about.

Take a look at http://www.cp-e.com/content/bmw-335i...ine-controller

And don't let calvin fool you, there IDK "high tech" tune still loses in most races against the jb3.
