Anyway, I hope I’m wrong. I’d love a bm3 flash as I had it on my 435 before and it was great and crazy easy to flash. Much easier than going to a tuner every time you want to flash to stock and vice versa.
I have a local high performance BMW shop that will give me a tune worth about 60-70whp for about $900. The problem for me is that I much rather have full control over when I flash and how I flash it anytime anywhere.

Older s55s can and have been locked by dealerships updating their software. But who knows. Hope someone unlocks it.
