Boom.....I am officially in the family, It was a tough process but finally figured out a work around for my stubborn laptop and successfully got her flashed. Thanks a bunch to Dzenan for remoting in the other night to try and figure out the communication issues. Not only that even though they have been super busy him or Rob always found the time for communication. I feel bad to waste Dzenan's time but I fixed it!

That problem aside, which has nothing to do with PTF/BM3...this process is so easy even this tech stupid guy can do it. Once i got in 5min to do the unlock and initial flash and then 1 min to do the refresh to fix the fuel system error.

I will be driving it to work in the morning to give it a test drive and see how it feels then I will read for trouble codes. I had a bunch after the flash, and a few more when I did the "online" refresh to get rid of the fuel system error.

The one weird thing was when the flashing started the rear tail lights come on for the whole process....

More feedback coming once I get some driving done

Congrats on the conversion to proper flash solution.

Curious can you max out 480hp on gauge? Yes or not, what's your maximum hp it shows and at what rpm?

[NO_USER_]

Congrats man, glad you got it working! Sorry if I couldn’t help you much.

Hey SeanWRT, it appears that I almost max out that gauge...so I’m not sure what the point is to the increase lol. Even when stock, the gauge serves no purpose IMO, but to me the numbers just increased but the needle goes to the same spot lmfao I want mine back to 400/400.

[SeanWRT]

It's best when gauge is at the state of 'almost max out'. You know how hard DME think it's pushing. Unlike piggyback, DME see and process real inputs. So it serves well as a 'hard working' indicator.

I have 400/400 gauge unchanged. I max it out easily and quickly from like just a tad above 4k rpm. I think 500/500 suits me better. Unfortunately the spectacular base file my custom map is edited from doesn't have that adjustable doesn't matter haha

Welcome to the club! Looking forward to your impressions!

Oh! Well my previous custom tune before was nuts then cuz it maxed 400/400 pretty quick too. Hopefully we can make some great power with a custom tune from Twisted Tuning

[horsepower_and_hounds]

But how accurate are these gauges.... like maybe +10/20-0 hp? I mean I did a WOT pull from redline to 5500 in 4th and i swear it was at 420

[horsepower_and_hounds]

Ok guys, I am jumping in on this and giving some feedback after two days of running the stg 2 93oct M2 tune. Now granted adaption is not complete and my past experience has been pretty extensive experimentation with the JB4 running 93, E30 & booster.

I have been hot rodding around town a bit and did a couple of solid 4th gear pulls this morning and here is my 1st impression. Very consistent, solid yet smooth power curve and feels strong all the way up with some flutter up top. Now on the butt dyno it seems to need a bit to get going but remember now I am used to the boost being agro in your face (JB4) right out of the shoot so it kind of fools you into feeling like the map is a little soft but I am sure across the full range is makes up time real fucking quick.

The JB4 was erratic, surges, flutters, hard to manage boost application via pedal....fucking disaster for a real driving car. Could prolly be fine for just pulls but feels like shit. The stg 2 93 flushes all that down the toilet. It feels completely mated to the car, power delivery is natural, smooth and predictable. I am happy so far...... Also note I am running aprox 96oct so am going to drop it down a bit and see how it fairs and see if the HPFP holds up

Ok now to the over run, all I can say is christ guys it feels like a war zone. I always wanted a car that sounded like a IMSA race car....now i got it. I have to somewhat agree that is is slightly overdone, but.... I have the MPE without a DP (one is coming) so it is a semi bypass design. Now with flaps closed it burbles about the same as it did open before the tune. Now with them open it is hunting season. I am not sure I want to put a DP on now. We could tone it down slightly but I would rather have it this way than none at all. So far it rocks. My plan is to adapt it a bit more then head to the rollers to see how it fairs compared to stock and the JB4.

Awesome job Dzenan & Halim

I've been screamed at, heads turning 100% of the time, and people just staring on the street or from their car. I don't like it LMFAO.

Go to the Dashboard > Hit Log > or Double Tap anywhere to start the log, do the same to end it.

Then you can share the link

[horsepower_and_hounds]

Yea, remember I am not on the OBD agent. So I need to plug the lap top in, log in to both the BM3 agent software and log into my account then open dashboard and and then I can go off wifi and the dashboard will stay active and I can log multiple times and it will store it on the computer till I return home to wifi? Remember I am the electronics dummy

Also did you notice that when you flashed your car the rear tail lights were active until it finished? Kind of odd

Just run the agent, log...when you get back home it'll auto upload. You'll see an error when driving and stopping the log, dont worry about it lol.

Stage 2 with stock DP?

Me?
Yes stage 2 with FMIC and MPE, not DP as of yet

[horsepower_and_hounds]

On man I forgot to mention one huge thing, no F'n cold start! So nice and different without it. A slight rough idle on the initial start but then smooths out shortly after. Can't believe I forgot to mention it...... must have been all that gunfire

welcome to the BM3 club, OP!!!! the over-run is intoxicating lol. when you get a DP, it's going to sound nuts. if catless, it's too loud for daily driving. i haven't heard exhaust and sport-cat DP yet in person.

me, HandmadeShifts and recycledAlva rolled thru a parking garage to take pics, and security kicked us out because he thought my over-run was revving. I made sure to show him my brake lights while the exhaust was still crackling when he followed me out.

in hind-sight, maybe we should have cruised there in comfort mode?
