Bootmod3 Stage 1
After many months, I finally have my M2C! Picked it up in Munich in November, again at the Performance Center last week, and now back at home.
It was approximately 50 F out, on the stock tires, and the only mod being the bootmod3 S55 Stage 1 93 octane tune. I only did one run without launch control in Sport Plus with MDM on and this was the result. I did have traction issues that higher temps may resolve. I didn't run a 1/4 mile since I was on the street on a 65 mph road. Most of the car mags use a 0-60 with 1 foot rollout, so the comparable 0-60 time would be 3.52 seconds. |

I did know this car could do under 4 seconds 0-60? What is "bootmod3 s55 stage 1?" Is it a software change? Does it increase HP? Does it void warranty?

As with all modifications, don't expect warranty coverage if something breaks. |

Is that app on a mobile device? If so, how did you combat 1hz GPS? Did you connect to a Bluetooth GPS at 10+hz?

Good to see someone is using the dragys with their m2c. I didn't have internet connection to be able to post them.
Really curious as to what yours did with this stage 1 in a 1/4 mph, really interested in learning your mph and 0-60 in that same run. Currently (yes its slow) ran a 12.22 @ 114.92 with only the AA mid pipe. So itching to do the bootmod3 but a little leery with some of the guys having errors pop up. Have a feeling this car with stock everything except for tune should be in the 120's and mid 11's or even lower. |

I'm looking forward to your test results. Are you going to try some tests using higher octane fuel such as VP racing? I've been using 70% Shell V-Power 91 with 30% VP Racing 100. It has made a difference although it is $$$.

I’m surprised by the number of people indicating they turn DSC fully off on the street. If MDM feels too restrictive, it’s probably because you are driving too recklessly for public roads.
Anyway, I wonder if the shorter wheel base noticeably helps with weight transfer under acceleration, and consequently putting the power down? Maybe that makes up for slightly narrower tires than m3/m4. |

My stock M235i had a very intrusive traction control, even in semi traction mode. The behavior was obvious even in normal everyday driving. The car would twitch mid turn and cut the power so often that I couldn't take it anymore. I upgraded to the Dinan spec 19s with 235/265 MPS 4S tires which helped a lot. Unfortunately during spirited driving I still had to use the DSC off mode for the car to feel free.
Conversely my M2C doesn't exibit any obvious "nanny" intrusions like my M235i did. Many people had been hacking their US model cars to the Euro traction specs. Maybe BMW wised up with the M2C with a much looser traction control. As I stated earlier in this thread, in MDM the car allows quite a bit of sliding. It is so free that in the rare slippery conditions that we get here I leave the traction on. |
