BM3 looks super appealing now with OBD flash tunes!!!

Don't you have Petro-Canada 94 Octane, or Esso 93 in Montreal??

AFAIK Petro 94 isn't a true 94 octane gas... I've been running Shell 91 for some times with tuned cars with good success.

I'd rather run a more conservative tune, if I ever tune the car

That is not correct - Petro 94 has a very high knock threshold as of 2016, much more than 91 Esso

If you want to just Flash and Go, PTF has you covered, no data logging required! Although, you always have the ability to data log if you want to and have that reviewed by PTF and they can make adjustments!

Thanks for sharing. Do you know if the OTS maps come with the GTS loud startup roar as they have on the f80/f82? Would love to see some videos of that!

I'm running the Stage 2 93 OTS map in my M2. Mods are DP, CP, Intercooler and a drop in filter.

Baseline Dyno with those mods fitted was a measly 286whp (I'm in Australia using a Dyno dynamics). After flashing that jumped to 343whp. Both runs under an hour apart.

In the midrange there was a gain of 75whp.

Needless to say it's fast! And the burble 😎

57whp would be a massive gain over FBO stock flash. How many run did you gave to the baseline? Were those runs stably showing 280+?

Post dynograph please.

[Oxymoron]

Only 1 run at 286 right before the flash.

2 weeks before that it made 296whp completely stock. Same dyno. So FBO actually made me lose peak hp.

I can't work or how to post pics sorry.

I'm in Australia... let's talk kw at the wheels!!
What are the numbers?

I am sorry but that's a sure sign that the 286hp dyno is not quite right. FBO should not lose peak power unless the install or the parts themselves are faulty.

Why are you guys talking about gains in a Step by Step thread? ? ?

Should take it to the other Bootmod3 M2 related thread

Bootmod3 General Discussion

[proTUNING Freaks]

thank you so much for putting this together

Some questions regarding the transmission: If you Flashed GTS DTC and went full stock(lock DME) later for some reason, do you need to re-flash GTS DTC after unlock DME again? If yes, do you need to flash the transmission back to stock before lock your DME? If no, will dealer detect anything? assuming the existence of GTS DTC flash. Thanks!

GTS gearbox software is flash-able with or without unlock so you don't have to worry about it. It's more of a "coding" effort than a flash where ECU is re-written.

I flashed GTS gearbox in early days when it's not even available with BM3. It shifted much more smoother but shifting logic was changed to the same across driving modes, meaning it's trying to get you into high gear in all modes like it would in comfort, C/S/S+ differ only in throttle sensitivity. I'm sure it was not the intention but a compatibility problem with M2, because M3/M4 don't have such issues.

Now that GTS gearbox is tagged Verison 2.0, maybe the issue is addressed. Anyway, you can switch back anytime, just a button click.

Just an FYI....I had the GTS DCT flash on the M4 and it did the similar thing. Under low throttle input it was always short shifting up. Really annoying. But when you were on the gas it then held gears longer and shifting was crisper yet smoother and more precise. I was 50/50 with it

Can anyone confirm the gts loud start up roar is included in the OTS maps? Even better if you have vids

Do I need to unlock the ECU before this?

No need. It does it all for you.

You now get ALL OTS MAPS for the price of ONE! STAGE 1, 2, E85, WHATEVER YOU WANT! BM3 is a no brainer at this point, 100% most bang for buck!

Per PTF:

We've also just announced a change to handling additional OTS (off the shelf) maps. Going forward we're moving away from charging for individual additional OTS maps and instead we'll be providing access to ALL OTS maps we might have for your car at any given time!

What does this mean?
What used to be the cost 1 additional ($50 for N20/N26/N55, $100 for S55 and $150 for S63tu/N63tu) is now the cost of the entire OTS Maps bundle. All OTS maps, including the free ones of course, will now become flashable for the cost of what used to be 1 additional OTS map.

Changes are effective immediately on our website and in the system. Anyone that has already paid for an additional OTS map in the past now has automatic access to all other OTS Maps by default and any OTS maps we're going to release in the future.

With bootmod3's offline flash feature it takes just shy of 4 minutes to go from stock to OBD unlocked and tuned with an OTS map on the car and about 40 seconds to switch (flash) from one map to another. It runs on anything you can imagine from Windows and macOS laptops to mobile iOS and Android devices. All that is required outside of a laptop to get going with it is just a $20 generic BMW ENET coding cable you can get on Amazon and you're good to go!

UPDATE - There is a BM3 Agent Application! Step 2 is now replaced with the following steps:

• Download the agent application for your desired operating system from here -> http://www.bootmod3.net/downloads/

• Install once downloaded, and proceed with Step 3. But you're now opening the newly installed application, not the .bat or .jar files.

You no longer need to install Java (if you installed it only for BM3, I recommend you uninstall it).

Anyone have the wifi agent? I just bought the wifi agent this week, updated to latest software. I see the diagnostics working using the bootmod3 network and password when im at home. I put on offline and soon as i drive away it disconnects so i cant see or log anything.

Dont see what im doing wrong?

Anyone have similar issue or know how to fix?
