No point in doing that honestly. The tune really doesn't effect much that would cause the new owner not to want it.
Yeah honestly if the buyer is a car guy then great, he/she will want the tune. If the buyer is not into cars, then just don't mention the tune and they won't know the difference

My 328 is a daily and I think it's a fabulous car for the money, I call
It the baby m3.

And if you feel superior to the 328 u should have bought the real thing in the first place, the m3

Would be keen to hear the differences you experience between the AA and BPC tune, if you end up heading in that direction

That will be an interesting comparison, can you post both results?

I just wish I drove with BPC tune more. It seems like the car is adjusting and feels stronger every time I drive it. So far I only put about 200 miles on it.

GTI is used as daily commuter car (beater car), and my "toy" is mostly used on weekends. Since dyno is set for Friday, I highly doubt I will be able to put more miles on it before the run. I could use it for commute tomorrow, but I am too lazy to go fuel it up tonight, or stop by gas station tomorrow morning.

I love hanging out on 1Addicts because we never get any of this...


ANYWAY. I'm really excited to start modding my 128i with the 3IM and a tune. I'd love a BPC but being within drive-able distance to AA in Pompano, along with the cheaper price is really tempting.

Excited to see the dyno sheets!

Ask AA about their updated n52 tune. They posted on here recently (I can't remember which thread) that they just got a 328i test car and were working on updating it. Apparently they are friends with the BPC guys so maybe they can give you similar results.

Regardless, dyno tune is probably better anyway so if you're close by then I say go for it. Super happy with the BPC tune though. Just got the updated file for my 3-stage which I plan to install this weekend

They told me theyd have an updated tune for me in a week. That was 2 weeks ago, and no word back still. We'll see.

Yaps. Andrew said that they are still working on it. I think it might be several weeks before they even have a beta to share with people.

However, due to all the hype that BPC is getting, i wouldn't be surprised that they just wanted to do a distraction and get some marketing. It worked thou.

I still stand by what I said before. Once they complete their tune, I will gladly give it a try.

AA is only cheaper if you do it in person, or mail in your ECU. Otherwise, the cost difference is pretty much insignificant.

But, after having BPC for over a week, trust me, you DO want BPC.

You think it'll be worth it going from AA to BPC if you don't have headers?
