12.30 @ 118.8, that was on Dunlop Direzza street tires and I am MT.

Haven't figured out the launch yet with the DRs, but hopefully I'll flirt with 11s.

I think Intel is coming out with Octa core "CHIP", should be FASTER than AMD, or Procede or any other

I don't know why people say spinworld... it's a solid track if you ask me and I almost always saw consistent times there.

Tom was all over it on Sat with his new N55 sitting in front of FFTEC. Rumor has it that there isn't much difference between the N54 and N55 other than the crank. So hopefully Tom can be at the top of the list with getting a single upgrade on his N55. It's only a matter of time, so don't waste your money on other tunes, buy a Procede.

Regardless..assuming its an N55, JB4 all the way for the sole reason Vishnu has been focused on other projects...this could change eventually of course. (and I hope it will..c'mon Shiv, give N55ers that turbo upgrade!)

Compared to Bradenton or PBIR, its crap. They rarely prep the track and if they do, it only happens once before the racing starts.

You don't say? Wonder if I should head out to Desoto Speedway this Thursday since it's been chili with the temps.

presuming because your car is '11 335i, you have a N55 -- you still haven't answered this question, and it's actually the most important one for people to give you an accurate answer.

sticking with you having an n55, you're really limited to 2 options (because if you buy a Dinan chip, you've just wasted $2,000)

1st is the Burger Tuning JB, Stages 1 or 2
http://www.burgertuning.com/products.html

2nd is the Vishnu PROcede
http://procedetuning.com/BMW/n55/n55.html


You'll see that they're both SIGNIFICANTLY less expensive than the Dinan, and because they're both plug in systems, you can easily clear any fault codes you get back, unplug them & not worry about your warranty.


Because I have an N54 335i & a cobb tune (who currently does not make a tune for the N55 engine), I am going to remove myself from unfairly criticizing/praise either of these tunes

No need to search....there's a stick at the top of the page that covers all your questions. Mods place them there because this would (is) be asked a million times a day.

JB4 probably gives the most bang for the money, and Dinan tune the least.

Personally I'm using the Procede and is happy with that. You will be happy with any of the major tunes, Vishnu, BMS JB4 or Cobb.

Cobb has the advantage you don't need to make any changes in the car since it is just a software load. But the other tunes are easy to install if you don't have two thumbs in the middle of each hand.

Sunchips, lays, ruffles
And once I am done eating chips I run a piggie back on my car,
That means a car on top of a car, like two cars in one.
Some cars run a flash which means they disappear in a flash, like flash Gordon ya know
Sorry had to lol

Thank for the input guys, looks like I'll be getting the JB4. I guess I'll post up about it later. Seems like my boss knows the owner of BMS and has gotten in touch with him for me so I'll see what happens. Thanks again
