Race Chip Tuning for the M2

NathObeaN · 09-21-2018, 02:57 PM

I know I digging up an old thread here but thought it was better than starting a new one. Anyway, has anyone actually purchased this and can you report on how well it works? I'm thinking about giving one a go.

See here: Transmission is the GS6-45BZ by ZF.

Please click on "Technical Information". It's the same tranny that the 1M had with a few modifications.

They could have opted for the GS6-53 that could take 600nm...but they didn't.

Too complete your question: yes, if you have a 6MT, please stay away from mods that increase nm or pressure on the gearbox as this can affect the drivetrain in general (in a bad way).

So if the limit is 470 and the M2 has 465 peak torque, does it mean even a catted DP is a bad idea for a manual?

Maybe it's ok since over-boost has a limited duration?
