I was told in an email from them that it's about 100 to 120 on the 50i. I'm not sure about the 35. If you email them they'll answer any of your questions. There's only 5 of them but they will get back to you, it just may not be right away.

I started another thread on this but, yes, i have it on my 50i. As of now, there are 2 tunes for the 50i: "stage 1 93 octane" for no mods and "stage 2 93 octane" for high flow downpipes. I think there are quite a few more for the 35 (91 octane stage 1 & 2 and 93 octane stage 1 and 2) as they started developing for that motor awhile ago. There could be more, im not 100% sure. Shoot them an email and ask what specific tunes they have for your model and motoe.

No sir. I had a bit of trouble flashing the tune but it turns out they had 10 minutes of server maintenance that happened to be during the same time i tried to flash. No one's fault. They will remote into your computer while you're connected through the OBD if there happens to be an issue

On the $299 Dinan tune, what I meant was you can take it off as its 1 plug when you go to the dealership, and then you can keep your warranty intact with just the MPPK. I think the Dinan boosts it by 3 or 4 PSI on top of the MPPK, cant remember exactly.

A little insight I learned the passed week reading on tunes on different BMW forums.
Even when you remove a piggyback, the dealer can look in the logs and see red flags of the higher than normal boost levels. So if they decided to look that deep, they can still deny warranty work. Whether the dealer even has time or would even care is a case by case type thing. I doubt most dealers would even snoop around the engine bay while doing routine maintenance. Regarding my Racechip. It feels great. I have it at one step above the default. No jerkiness, no CEL, and it still feels natural. I won't be turning it up because 93 octane is very rare in L.A.

Update: Take it with a grain of salt. I got .6 reduction 0-60 time according to torque app. On par with what BMW claims with the MPPK.

Bm3 will over write the mppk. A stock n55 will only take so much... if you are looking to push it too max just do a custom bm3 tune.

I have the RC Ultimate but it's discontinued. r33_RGSport can help you out. He has the new RC on his car.

I think only a dealer can flash it.

I am sure someone in the bm3 community could it as m3/4 owners can get Cs/gts tunes for their cars
